There&#8217;s some political drama brewing in the Senate. According to a top Republican senator, Democrats could regain a majority on a key Senate committee if Sen.

The GOP rejected an effort to temporarily replace the Californian, but if Feinstein, who is 89, steps down, Democrats would be able to replace her, says Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf she does resign, I would be in the camp of following the precedent of the Senate replacing the person, consistent with what we have done in the past,\u201d Graham, the ranking member of the judiciary panel, said on CNN\u2019s \u201cState of the Union.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But don&#8217;t count Feinstein out just yet. Despite calls for her resignation from dozens of groups in California, she has resisted so far and has not said when she will return to Washington.<\/p>\n<h2>Votes for Biden Nominees<\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is nominating candidates for judicial vacancies, and the Senate Judiciary Committee is considering each one.
