Garland's nomination wasn't even brought up in committee. His nomination was treated as if it never occurred.
If Murkowski, Collins, and two others vote against cloture, that will be a completely different action than what occurred to Garland.
But the White House was Dem and Senate Rep. with Garland.
Has a SCOTUS ever been confirmed when opposite parties held the White House and Senate?
