Polls Have Shown Voters Prefer Biden to Pick Next Justice

[RandySF]

In 2016 and 2018, many analysts concluded that Supreme Court politics helped Republicans by helping to energize or consolidate conservative voters.

True or not, it certainly wasn’t obvious ahead of time which side would benefit from a court vacancy, and the same can be said today, in the aftermath of the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. There’s no way to know exactly what will unfold, but a closer look at recent polls, including new New York Times/Siena College surveys, does provide reason to think that Joseph R. Biden Jr. might have as much — or more — upside on the issue than President Trump.

In Times/Siena polls of Maine, North Carolina and Arizona released Friday, voters preferred Mr. Biden to select the next Supreme Court justice by 12 percentage points, 53 percent to 41 percent. In each of the three states, Mr. Biden led by just a slightly wider margin on choosing the next justice than he did over all.

Similarly, a Fox News poll last week found that voters nationwide trusted Mr. Biden over Mr. Trump — by seven points — to nominate the next Supreme Court justice. Here again, Mr. Biden led by a slightly wider margin on this issue than he led Mr. Trump.

1. Then Moscow Mitch has to lose

He's enabled trump to corrupt the courts, and OUR government. I suspect he has ties to putin too with trump and other republicans in Congress. Their involvement with putin has to be exposed to stop them. They have to be overwhelmingly voted out of office , or this will continue to escalate attacking our Democracy by them. republicans now have to stand against these acts of treason against our country , or help them weaken our Democracy , and our country more now. This happening now will empower trump to escalate his attacks on our Democracy without consequences knowing he will be protected for his being corrupt. Vote these criminals out of office.
