They will 100% fill that seat before Jan 20th. The outcome of the election does not matter. Anyone who thinks otherwise really doesn't understand McConnell and the gang. They'll let Romney dissent, it'll be the impeachment vote v2.

I saw some interviews with her, pretty amazing lady. Sad to see her go.

Yes, she a wonderful human and a brilliant thinker and writer. He take on Roe is nuanced and thoughtful and no bullshit (she doesn’t love it.)

I’m curious if they wait until after the election. Dangle it in front of their base as “we have to save this seat”.

Or maybe it’s actually a dis-incentive for republican turnout because RBG dying was a strong selling point for next term.

It will be interesting for sure.

EDIT:

I take that back. They will confirm before Election Day. They need a fifth judge for Trump to contest the election.
