Not that it will happen, but if it was 50-49 no, could Sessions vote for himself to force a tie?

Donnelly votes no.  It looks like 53-47 (or 52-47 if Sessions doesn't vote).

Glad to see some Democrats growing a spine, but the way the Senate is right now, no nominations are going to get blocked.

I hope Heller gets knocked out, he's in a very blue state. Flake? Probably not.
