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.
