Senate fails to get enough votes to convict Trump

The U.S. Senate voted 57-43 on whether to convict former President Donald Trump of inciting the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. A two-third vote, or 67, was needed to convict.

The 50 Democrats were joined by seven Republicans, Sens. Richard Burr of North Carolina, Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, voting in conviction.
