Democrats have 51. If Manchin votes against, that's 50/50 with Kamala as the tie breaker.
no
“The 2020 elections decided control of both houses. In the House, the Democratic Party retained their majority. In the Senate, out of 100 seats, Republicans will hold 50, Democrats will hold 48, and Independents caucusing with the Democrats will hold 2.”
A Manchin vote against makes it 51/49. Only in a tie is Kamala the defacto 51 as tiebreaker
its moot anyway, Romney and Collins and Murakowski will do whatever Schumer demands of them
