Voters favor Biden over Trump to nominate next justice, polling shows
It’s too soon to tell whether the Supreme Court vacancy left by Ginsburg will benefit Republicans or Democrats in the November elections, but recent polls show voters trust Biden more than President Trump to nominate the next justice.
In New York Times/Siena polls in Maine and the battleground states of North Carolina and Arizona, voters said they thought Biden would do a better job than Trump choosing a justice for the high court.
The margin was widest in Maine, considered a safe state for Biden, with 59 percent of voters saying they preferred the Democratic presidential nominee and 37 percent saying they preferred Trump. In Arizona, Biden led Trump on the issue 53 percent to 43 percent, according to the polls. In North Carolina, 47 percent of voters said they favored Biden to pick the nominee, compared with 44 percent favoring Trump.
The polls, released Friday, involved 653 likely voters in each state.
