ToplineSen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), the Democratic nominee for vice president and a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, will take a hiatus from campaigning to attend the Supreme Court confirmation hearings of Judge Amy Coney Barrett, setting up the already charged proceedings to be something of a campaign event. A professor at Palo Alto University and a research psychologist at the Stanford University School of Medicine, Ford has accused Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her during a party in 1982 when they were high school students in suburban Maryland. warned Democrats to refrain from "anti-Catholic, anti-Christian, anti-faith vitriol in the hearings to come,” adding "you owe it to the country." Does she believe in the precedent on the Supreme Court that has upheld the Affordable Care Act?" Additionally, 50% said Biden would do a better job of confirming Supreme Court justices while 43% said Trump, and 56% said the winner of the election should appoint Ginsburg’s replacement.
