Mark Kelly Admits He Would Vote Against Judge Amy Coney Barrett
2020-10-08
[BREITBART] Democrat Senate candidate Mark Kelly admitted in a debate Tuesday night that he would vote against confirming Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court.Kelly, like other Democrats, has argued that the confirmation of a new justice to replace the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg should wait until after the election — the opposite of the position most Democrats held four years ago. (At the time, Republicans said the late Justice Antonin Scalia’s seat should not be filled until after the election.)

But Kelly had been somewhat guarded about whether he would, in fact, vote against Barrett. He might have a vote, even if the vote were to be held before the new Congress, because he is running against Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) to serve the remaining two years of the term of the late Sen. John Maverick McCain
... the Senator-for-Life from Arizona, former presidential candidate and even more former foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution. As an ordinary citizen he greased the infamous hookers peeing on the Obamabed in Moscow dossier in an attempt to smear President Trump...
(R-AZ).

Though Republicans are promising a vote before Election Day, if there are any delays, Kelly would have to make a choice.

On Tuesday evening, during the one and only debate for the Arizona seat, Kelly said he would oppose Barrett — even though confirmation hearings, scheduled for next week, have not yet begun.

#4  A great troll would be for Barrett to show up wearing a hijab. See how many questions she gets about her religion then.

#3  Can we just skip the hearings and go right to the vote? It's not like anyone is going to change their mind and we could avoid all that grandstanding and spittleous speechifying.

#2  Goldwater and the prodigal son, McCain, have destroyed the republican party here in AZ for decades. The best AZ can produce is McSally? She is a fringe player at best, not a national player. And she is the best they have? We are a state that is turning blue because the party here is a wreck. I expect Kelly to win, and he is a fraud.
