Senate rejects yet another GOP push to revive SAVE America Act - Democracy Docket

Excerpt

The amendment, offered by U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), failed in a 48-50 vote. The vote showed Republicans didn’t even have a simple majority for the proposal, even before reaching the 60-vote threshold needed to overcome procedural objections.

Four Senate Republicans — Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and Thom Tillis of North Carolina — joined every Democrat to block the amendment.
