Voters in Red states w/ shaky Sen. Dems: Confirm Trump pick

A new poll shows that voters in battleground states represented by vulnerable Senate Democrats decisively want President Donald Trump’s nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, to replace Anthony Kennedy in the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS)...

The poll conducted by the Tarrance Group between July 5 and 8 revealed that voters agree by a decisive margin of at least 12 percent that their senators should confirm the SCOTUS appointment Trump announced Monday night. After explaining that the U.S. Senate will vote on the president’s appointment to replace Justice Kennedy, it asked voters, “Do you think Senator [Nelson, Donnelly, McCaskill, Heitkamp, or Manchin: depending on the state] should vote to confirm President Trump’s appointment to the Supreme Court?”

And here’s what voters from the five Senate battleground states said:

•Florida – 56 percent yes, 44 percent no

•Indiana – 56 percent yes, 44 percent no

•Missouri – 57 percent yes, 43 percent no

•North Dakota – 68 percent yes, 32 percent no

•West Virginia – 59 percent yes, 41 percent no

This advice to confirm Trump’s SCOTUS nominee goes across demographic lines – from gender to political preference.

“While there is a gender gap, women across all five states remain at 53 percent ‘yes,’ while fully 65 percent of men agree,” the Tarrance Group’s T.J. Martino explained in the poll results. “While the response is more polarized by partisanship, voters who identify or are registered as independents hold at 59 percent ‘yes.’ Similarly, a 55-percent majority of self-described ‘moderate’ voters agree their senator should confirm President Trump’s pick.”

•West Virginia – 59 percent yes, 41 percent no]

I hope these numbers are representative, nation-wide, of the mid-terms in a few months.

Given how much the Democrats have gone even more crazy than before. If that were possible.

The Media is going to Hound the Red State Senators and not let up. LOL

“Ideally several Red state Senators will roll over and vote to confirm, and then get kicked to the curb in November anyway.”

HAHA I was thinking the same thing.

“Thanks a lot for the vote but we never like you anyways. Goodbye”

Your points about Heitkamp and North Dakota are true.

One also important thing to consider was her opponent in 2012 - Rick Berg. From everything I read back then, he ran a less than inspiring race.

Heitkamp racked up some really good vote totals in the Red River Valley. It was enough to offset Berg’s numbers elsewhere in the state.

I wonder what Anus (oops sorry, Angus, my bad) King will do...Maine needs to replace that moron...(really both of those morons).
