NBC News: “More than a 1,000 miles from Washington, wedding bells in Montana on Saturday will cause one Republican senator to change how her vote on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is tallied.”
“Sen. Lisa Murkowski said Friday she ultimately will be marked as ‘present’ rather than a ‘no’ when the Senate is expected to confirm Kavanaugh to the nation’s highest court. She will be using the ‘pair between senators’ procedure so that Republican Sen. Steve Daines can walk his daughter down the aisle on her wedding day.”
Said Murkowski: “It will not change the outcome of the vote. But I do hope that it reminds us that we can take very small, very small steps to be gracious with one another. And maybe those small, gracious steps can lead to more.”
