A new poll finds that a majority of Americans approve of adding Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.
This is a major failure for Democrats, the liberal media and activists in Hollywood, who all tried to paint Coney Barrett as outside of the mainstream and a threat to America’s highest court.
The same poll found that most people oppose packing the court. There is no good news for the left here.

Majority favor confirming Barrett to Supreme Court, oppose court packing, polls show
A new Gallup poll shows that a majority of Americans support the confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court by a slim margin.
The poll, released Tuesday morning, revealed that 51% of participants said they are in favor of President Trump’s latest nominee joining the high court, compared to 46% who are opposed. Just 3% said they do not have an opinion on the matter, the lowest number since Gallup started taking polls on Supreme Court nominees.
The poll was taken from Sept. 30 – four days after Trump nominated Barrett – to Oct. 15, the final day of her confirmation hearing.
Barrett’s 51% approval is higher than both of Trump’s previous nominees. Justice Neil Gorsuch received support from 45% of those polled when he was nominated, and Justice Brett Kavanaugh garnered 41%.
In both of those situations, far more people stated they had no opinion. For Gorsuch, 23% had no opinion and 32% were opposed, and for Kavanaugh 22% had no opinion and 37% were opposed.
Mitch McConnell has already said that Republicans have enough votes to confirm her and the vote is happening on Monday.

This is going to happen, and before the election too.
It will be a major win for Trump and the American people.
