Keystone XL Pipeline Stuck at 59 Votes

Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) and other supporters of the Keystone XL oil pipeline “are stuck at 59 votes — one vote shy of the supermajority they need to move their bill forward on Tuesday,” The Hill reports.

However, Landrieu remained adamant on Monday evening that she had the 60 votes.

Politico: “The parlor game on Capitol Hill regarding the 60th vote has become so intense that Democrats merely rumored to be thinking about voting ‘yes’ have found themselves under attack from pipeline opponents on social media.”
