Exclusive Call: Supreme Court Vacancy Polling Data


11:30 AM - 12:00 PM EDT

The Center for American Progress and GBA Strategies recently completed one of the most comprehensive examinations to date of public attitudes about President Barack Obama’s nomination of Judge Merrick Garland to fill the vacancy on the U.S. Supreme Court following the death of former Justice Antonin Scalia.

The results across multiple measures are clear. American voters want the U.S. Senate to uphold its constitutional duty to offer its advice and consent on the president’s nomination and move forward with confirmation hearings and an up-or-down vote for Judge Garland.

Please join experts from the Center for American Progress for an exclusive briefing call on the results of this Supreme Court polling and the path forward in the fight to confirm Justice Merrick Garland.

CAP experts joining the call are:

Neera Tanden, President and CEO, Center for American Progress

Angela Kelley, Senior Vice President, Center for American Progress

John Halpin, Senior Fellow, Center for American Progress
