According to a report, Senator Doug Jones (D-AL) is set to announce Wednesday morning how he will vote in the impeachment trial of President Donald J. Trump.

Jones is faced with voting to convict or acquit Trump on two separate charges: Abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

CNN’s Manu Raju on Tuesday tweeted that Jones said he is “tentatively” decided on how he will vote.

Jones will reportedly announce his decision Wednesday morning, likely between 10:00 — 11:00 a.m. CST.

Jones has been silently public on impeachment in recent days after posting daily video updates through Friday of last week.

He has voted with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) 100% of the time throughout the trial thus far.
