Meanwhile, moderate Democrat Sen Doug Jones revealed on Thursday night he would be voting no on Kavanaugh's bid for the Supreme Court.
The Alabama senator called the nomination process 'flawed from the beginning' and said he found Ford to be both credible and courageous.
Jones added that he was concerned voting yes on Kavanaugh's nomination would send a bad message to sons, daughters, and victims of sexual assault.
Several Senate Republicans likewise acknowledged Ford's 'credibility'. But that didn't stop GOP leadership from scheduling a Judiciary panel meeting and Friday vote immediately after the end of Kavanaugh's testimony.
If the GOP bands together on the procedural vote, the full Senate will consider the Kavanaugh nomination early next week.
A pair of Republicans failing to believe Kavanaugh's emphatic denials would doom his fate - unless a Democrat like Munchin crosses the aisle to back him.
