Monday evening, Kevin Cramer, candidate for the U.S. Senate in North Dakota, announced his support for President Trump’s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh for the U.S. Supreme Court to fill the vacancy created by the upcoming retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy.
“He is strongly committed to the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution and holds tight to the concept of the constitutional separation of powers to ensure government accountability and protect our liberty. His temperament, academic background and past judicial experience more than qualify him to serve on the highest court in the land. I believe these characteristics and values match perfectly with the expectations of the majority of North Dakotans and for these reasons, I support his nomination and strongly encourage our North Dakota Senators to unite in support of this outstanding nominee. This is a winning pick for North Dakota and deserves our two votes,” Cramer said.
The nomination to fill Justice Kennedy’s Supreme Court seat has been getting much attention lately particularly for areas with highly contested mid-term elections.
