As the Senate gets ready to vote on Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court, at least four Senators are still apparently undecided.
Donald Trump’s second nominee to the highest court in the land was supposed to sail through the confirmation process but allegations of sexual assault and misconduct, primarily from Christine Blasey Ford, have delayed the vote.
Dr Ford’s powerful testimony about the alleged assault at a small party in 1982, when she and Mr Kavanaugh were in high school in Maryland, was met with a fiery, often angry and emotional, testimony from Mr Kavanaugh in his defence against the allegations.
After a week-long delay and an FBI investigation in Dr Ford’s allegations as well as other women, his seat on the court lies in the hands of Republican Senators Jeff Flake, Susan Collins, and Lisa Murkowski as well as Democrat Joe Manchin.
