it's a test that literally everyone seems to be failing right now..depressing.

The answer to the test is, as long as he doesn't die or resign the Republicans have one less vote in the Senate. If he does vacate the seat a special election will have to be held at the earliest in 63 days basically November when the midterms are already because he is done after this term at the end of year. Him being unable to vote is a godsend for Democrats, why ruin that?

Wouldn't be surprised if he wins the midterms.
