I thought Kavanaugh was already voted out of committee, and the full Senate vote is next week?

Tuesday is confirmation. Wednesday swearing in and either Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning first day on job. Unless some how it’s stopped.

Theoretically, some senators could vote Saturday to move ahead to a confirmation vote on Tuesday and then vote against it. If I recall corrected, that happened with the ACA repeal vote.

For a full Senate Vote, probably on Tuesday.

That's where crucial votes like Collins, Donnelly, Testor, Murkowski, Manchin will vote.
