Question

Do you believe a Supreme Court nominee should be named this year or do you believe the Senate should wait until the results of the 2020 election are known? Why do you believe this?  ​

Answer 1

This question is based on your opinion.

For example:

Yes. I believe a Supreme Court nominee should be named this year because  throughout history, presidents have nominated Supreme Court candidates regardless of whether it was an election year, including Brandeis, whose nomination was confirmed in June 1916.

OR

No. I believe the Senate should wait until the results of the 2020 election, because the choosing of a new Supreme Court nominee is too close to the election and it should be up to the new president to make the final decision. The new president will be in office for the next 4 years, and that is when the new nominee should be decided.
