Senate on track for final impeachment vote Saturday as Democrats mull calling witnesses
CNN
The Senate is poised to vote Saturday on whether to convict former President Donald Trump for inciting the insurrection at the Capitol last month in the culmination of the first impeachment trial of an ex-president in US history, though Democrats will need to decide on whether to seek witnesses in the trial first.
The final vote is not set, but the Senate is racing toward concluding the trial in five days -- unless the Democratic impeachment managers seek witnesses. That could extend the trial beyond Saturday, although senators in both parties are not expecting any witnesses to be called. Democrats have been debating whether to call witnesses in light of new details that have emerged with the trial underway this week, according to multiple sources, including new descriptions about Alabama GOP Sen. Tommy Tuberville's call with Trump as the riot unfolded and new details about House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's call with the former President.More Related News
