Two Democrats Have Now Pledged To Vote For Neil Gorsuch

Senators Joe Manchin and Heidi Heitkamp are both Democrats who have pledged to vote for SCOTUS nominee, Neil Gorsuch to be the ninth justice on the Supreme Court.

Joe Manchin stated:

“Senators have a constitutional obligation to advice (sic) and consent on a nominee to fill this Supreme Court vacancy and, simply put, we have a responsibility to do our jobs as elected officials,” Manchin said in a statement Thursday. “I will vote to confirm him to be the ninth justice on the Supreme Court.”

Joe Manchin is not the only Democrat Senator who will be voting for Gorsuch. Democrat Senator Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota released a statement expressing her intent to vote for Neil Gorsuch and said the following:

“After doing my due diligence by meeting with Judge Gorsuch and reviewing his record and testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, I’ve decided to vote in favor of his confirmation. He has a record as a balanced, meticulous, and well-respected jurist who understands the rule of law,”.

We need more Democrats like this who aren’t blatantly partisan.
