Every single person in states with Republican senators has to vote them out in November. Good chance we can hold on till then...bad chance if the Senate remains majority GOP.

Forget Trump, we all know what we think about him...it's all about the sen GOP, whether they present as insane as them or not most will vote for a Trump nominee because, politics.

Kentucky’s machines have no paper trail. Check if your state does, and try to vote absentee if not. And anticipate obstacles to your paper ballot counting even then..

Even if Republicans lose the Senate majority in the election, they have the ability to confirm and appoint a justice before they leave office in January.

Yes in a lame duck session. Murkowski and Collins have already said they disapprove of that and Romney is an ABT. That leaves it at 50/50 and if even one is a sen who was already deseated then there will be a crisis of proportions over a man contesting an election result and being able to appoint the person who could throw things.
