Two of these so called Republicans lost in the 2016 election to Democrats. Kelly Ayotte and Mark Kirk. The rest aside from maybe Cory Gardner and Ron Johnson are in strong red, Republican states. They have no excuse for their vote.
Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Tim Scott and self proclaimed conservative Ben Sasse have no excuses voting to confirm Sally Quillian Yates.
