Ketanji Brown Jackson‘s confirmation for the United States Supreme Court bench was in a deadlock after the Senate Judiciary Committee voted 11-11 on Monday. The vote, which was along party lines, pushed Jackson’s nomination to the Senate floor.

Going forward to the entire Senate, Jackson is expected to get bipartisan support as at least three Republican lawmakers have confirmed they would help confirm President Joe Biden’s nominee. Susan Collins (Maine), Mitt Romney (Utah) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) have demonstrated support for Jackson.

Monday’s procedural vote was delayed due to a Democratic lawmaker not being able to arrive at Capitol Hill on time. Alex Padilla, who replaced Vice President Kamala Harris in California after the Presidential elections, did not reach the Senate on time as a co-passenger on his flight faced a medical emergency, media reports suggest.

What do the voting lines look like right now?

As Jackson’s Senate confirmation nears, the number of lawmakers revealing their vote is increasing. While some have said they are ready to cross party lines to see Jackson in the United States Supreme Court, others have been staunch about voting against her. 

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell set the tone last week when he said he “cannot and will not” support her, citing the GOP concerns raised in the hearing about her sentencing record and her support from liberal advocacy groups.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said Thursday he won’t vote for Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, expressing concerns about her record despite supporting her confirmation as an appeals court judge last year, according to reports from Associated Press.

With three Republicans supporting her in the 50-50 split Senate, Jackson is on a glide path to confirmation and on the brink of making history as the third Black justice and only the sixth woman in the court’s more than 200-year history.
