Supreme Court Controversy
Majority Favors Post-Election Supreme Court Appointment
As the controversy about Ruth Bader Ginsburg's Supreme Court replacement rumbles on, a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll has found that 62 percent of the U.S. public favors a post-election appointment. Carried out between September 19th and 20th, the research found that just under a quarter of Americans strongly or somewhat disagree that the election winner should appoint Ginsberg's successor.
President Trump now appears to have secured the level of support required in the Republican-controlled Senate to move forward with his personal pick for her successor and that could happen as early as Friday or this weekend. Trump has said he intends appointing a female candidate.
