… A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds that 34% of Americans support the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, while 38% are opposed. This poll is in line with a recent poll from Gallup in which 39% of Americans were for confirmation and 42% were opposed. …
Kavanaugh’s low ratings will no doubt give fuel to opponents. Interest groups are trying to convince moderate Democrats and Republicans to vote against him. If they can use these polls to persuade senators that it’s electorally harmful to vote for Kavanaugh, it could help their cause.
These polls could also potentially be bad news for the Supreme Court were Kavanaugh to be confirmed. CONT.
