Is there a snowball's chance that if Kavanaugh's nomination is shot down, his replacement has still not been voted on election day?
Kavanaugh was nominated July 9th, two and a half months ago. Whoever the next nominee is, if needed, they will be ultra super fast tracked to a vote, but it seems that this process can get held up in lots of stonewalling.
And...if there is no seated judge by election day, will that energize voters or keep them home? Ultimately, the outcome of this election will not have an impact on the next seat at the SCOTUS table; someone will get needed votes by the time the election winners move into their offices.
