Cocaine Mitch Is ‘Proud’ Murkowski Is In The GOP Despite Her Vote On Kavanaugh

Despite Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s (R-AK) decision to not vote for Justice Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation to SCOTUS, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is “proud” to have her in the party and has no plans to oust her in the future.

After announcing a “No” vote against Kavanaugh, Murkowski opted to vote “Present” in honor of her Republican colleague, Steve Daines of Montana, who had to attend his daughter’s wedding during the Senate vote. The Alaska senator opposed Kavanaugh on the grounds of him being not “the right person for the court at this time” despite him being a “good man.” Conservatives expected she would flip due to her outspoken support of abortion and Roe v. Wade.
