SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES
Red State Swing-Vote Senator to Vote "No" on Kavanaugh

^ Heidi Heitkamp was one of the Dem swing votes the Republican Senate was courting for a 'yes' on Kavanaugh.  

She represents North Dakota, a state that Trump won by huge margins in 2016, and she's up for re-election this year.  

Like Justice Stevens, Heitkamp voiced her concerns about Kavanaugh's temperament today and told her local radio station that she's a 'no' on Kavanaugh.  She also said she believes Dr. Ford.  

Heitcamp may well lose her Senate seat in November for so doing, but she's voting her conscience. Good on her.
