Assume you are a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee. A nominee for the Supreme Court has an excellent reputation as a lawy
er and lower court judge but is likely to vote, if confirmed, to overturn the case that established a woman's right to choose an abortion. Voters in your state tend to support the right to choose. How would you vote on the nominee?
The Supreme Court has jurisdiction all over the nation, just because one state doesn't like their choices doesn't mean they aren't a great nominee. As stated in the question they have an excellent reputation as a lawyer, and as a lower court judge. So yes I would vote for the nominee.
