Late Thanksgiving blamed for impeachment delay

Due to a late Thanksgiving holiday Democrats "only have a few weeks" to draw up the Articles of Impeachment against President Donald Trump according to California Washington Centre's John Lawrence. Professor Lawrence told Sky News the “general feeling is people would like it to be voted on by the end of the year… but it’s anybody’s guess as they start drafting these solutions”. The Sky News contributor said 67 votes would be needed in the Senate to “convict and remove” the president from office. “While the Democrats in the house only require a majority of votes in order to pass the impeachment resolutions, it’s a very tough climb in the senate”, he said.
