Any Senators interested in running for the Presidency (pro tempore) of the Senate should announce the same here.

I announce my intention to seek the Presidency of the Senate.

Isn't the President pro tempore always a member of the majority party?
Not necessarily. By convention, he would be the most senior member of the majority party, but here, conventions don't matter!

i think when we get the list of 10 senators made, then there should have a closed-door election
How can we have a closed-door election?

And also, how could the senate confirm supreme court nominees without a President pro tempore required by the Constitution?
