As the Senate moves to confirm Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court, the attendance of one senator is still up in the air: U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.).
Republicans are facing a narrow majority — 51-49, including two independents who caucus with the Democrats — in order to appoint President Donald Trump’s nominee and McCain’s absence could hinder that process.
While one national political analyst said McCain, who has been in Arizona since late last year battling brain cancer, may be willing to give up his seat if it would help Kavanaugh be confirmed, another Arizona lawmaker has different thoughts.
