Joe Donnelly announced Sunday that he will support the nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. Donnelly is the third Senate Democrat to support Gorsuch, joining Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Joe Manchin of West Virginia. CNN's whip list has 36 Democrats saying or suggesting they will filibuster Gorsuch's nomination. Another two Democrats say they'll oppose Gorsuch in the final confirmation vote, but it's unclear where they will stand on a potential filibuster. In his statement, Donnelly added the Senate "should keep the current 60-vote threshold for Supreme Court nominees."
