Usual suspects + guys from PA/DE.
Coons and Casey do break with their Dems quite a bit

Yeah, this is for the better.

King: add in the guy from NV, and you are right.

Reid voted against this for procedural reasons

They voted to filibuster their own party's nominee because the nominee did his job and got a client spared from the death penalty? Time for some primary challenges to these DINOs. Especially to Casey and Coons, who are from blue states.
I can understand folks like Manchin voting against it because they need to distance themselves from Obama to win in their states, but Coons and Casey have no excuse.

Reid senate goes nuclear. Blames Republicans for impeding government. Reid votes no for Adegbile.

Gotta love Congress

By voting against this, Reid allowed there to be another vote at a later time. It's a procedural measure
