They would not vote unless they had it right? there is no way they actually let it fail?

They'd also vote if they knew that they haven't got it, no point in prolonging.
On track to MA1950A.

No from McCain. Even if they flipped Murkowski, unless Collins flipped, they'd only have 50. And Pence wasn't in the room.

Maybe he's come back and can break it.

Edit: Murkowski voted no. 50 votes at most; now Collins would need to flip.

Edit: well then this is over.

Voted no with an emphatic thumbs down (at least according to 538's cast).

McCain, Collins, and Murkowski are a NO. What an exciting and pointless evening. Rs just saved themselves 20 congressional seats. This was such a trap. The earlier iterations polled at 10-20%.

I'll be looking for the list of ayes, and hold onto that. I'm not gonna forget what they tried here.

3 R No's so unless a democrat decided to vote Yes (good luck getting reelected) this bill is over.

Wow. I'm still reeling that McCain actually did it, and in a way that really fucked McConnell over for his disgusting treatment of the process. Respect somewhat re-acquired, though I think there might be more things happening (?).

Brace yourself for "pathetic war 'hero' " tweets.
