Poll: More Americans oppose Kavanaugh confirmation than support it
NBCnews ^ | Sep.20.2018 | Mark Murray

More American voters now oppose Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination than support it after he was accused of committing sexual assault while he was in high school, with opposition increasing 9 points since last month, according to a new national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.

Kavanaugh has categorically denied the accusation, which delayed his scheduled confirmation vote before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and which has roiled American politics less than seven weeks before the 2018 midterm elections.

In the poll — which was conducted Sunday (when the accusation from Christine Blasey Ford was first made public) through Wednesday — 38 percent of voters say they oppose Kavanaugh’s nomination to serve on the nation’s highest court, including 27 percent who “strongly” oppose him.

After the two week media hysteria about Kavanaugh? Remember that half the American public voted bammy and hillary.

Poll: More people believe polls are lying pieces of propaganda than don’t.

Unfortunately this poll will make several Republican senators cower in fear.

Who gives a rat’s ass what ‘more Americans’ want. Keep in mind that the ‘average’ IQ is one hundred, and there are as many Americans below that figure as above.

More Americans are morons.

Funny how they don’t give the wording of the poll...did anyone here see it? Probably something like, “If this vile sexual abuser actually did what has been claimed by a very credible witness, should he be seated on the Supreme Court to abuse millions of women through the Judiciary?”

“The republican principle demands that the deliberate sense of the community should govern the conduct of those to whom they intrust the management of their affairs; but it does not require an unqualified complaisance to every sudden breeze of passion or to every transient impulse which the people may receive from the arts of men, who flatter their prejudices to betray their interests.” ― Alexander Hamilton

Presentation. Having fun with numbers.

Per the poll, only a minority oppose, and that minority appears to be much smaller than the number of Democrats.
