A new mainstream poll released on Sunday found that the overwhelming majority of Americans want Democrat President Joe Biden to consider all possible candidates when selecting his nominee to the Supreme Court.
The poll comes after Biden said this week during a press conference with retiring Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer that the person that he nominates to the Supreme Court will be “the first Black woman ever nominated to the United States Supreme Court.”

“It’s long overdue, in my view,” Biden claimed. “I made that commitment during the campaign for President, and I will keep that commitment.”
“Now, with the chance to do so, just over three-quarters of Americans (76%) want Biden to consider ‘all possible nominees,’” ABC News reported. “Just 23% want him to automatically follow through on his history-making commitment that the White House seems keen on seeing through.”
Nearly all Republicans, 95%, said that all nominees should be considered whereas only 54% of Democrats said the same.
