Senator John Cornyn said he remained prepared to vote against Todd Blanche’s nomination, signalling continued resistance despite the nominee’s importance to the incoming Justice Department leadership. The stance matters because a Republican senator’s opposition could complicate confirmation if the vote is close.

The supplied article text does not provide the reasons for Cornyn’s position, the nomination’s formal title, the timing of any vote or the wider Senate vote count. It only identifies Blanche in connection with the attorney general and Justice Department, so further detail cannot be verified from the material provided.
