The confirmation of the appointment of Judge Brett Cavanaugh in the Supreme Court is largely linked to the vote of three Republican senators who could give up most of them and vote against President Donald Trump´s candidate, as well as two Democrats still undecided.
In the United States, the Senate´s decision to approve the appointment of life judges in the Supreme Court is the highest judicial body in the country, detailing the most difficult issues such as the right to abortion, the regulation of firearms possession and homosexual marriage.
The Republicans currently have a slim majority in the Senate (51 out of a hundred). Most of them support without hesitation the judge Cavanaugh chosen by Trump because of his adherence to conservative values.
But three of them can take a different stance.
Since the start of the Cavanaugh appointment procedure, Susan Collins, 65, representing Maine and Lisa Murkowski, 61, who is a seat on Alaska, has not declared their positions in Judge Cavanaugh´s case.
These two moderate Republican parliaments have basically undermined Donald Trump´s attempt to repeal the Health Care Act approved by former President Barack Obama (Upamaker) in the summer of 2017.
Their reservations to judge Cavanaugh stem from their defence of the right to abortion.
The Catholic judge practising religious rites did not oppose this right in public. However, his name was on the list of candidates for the Supreme Court, who were previously selected by conservative organizations opposing the right to abortion.
After a woman came out before weeks to publicly accuse Judge Cavanaugh of sexually assaulting her in 1982, Susan Collins asked to be taken seriously.
She called for her to be heard in the Senate and went so far as to suggest a counter-examination by the lawyers of the parties.
The formula was not adopted but the University researcher Christine Blazi Ford was able to testify on Thursday under oath. So did Judge Cavanaugh, who denied all the facts.
Jeff was not a 55-year-ago senator from Arizona who finds no objection to Cavanaugh´s candidacy, but the accusations of Belazi Ford shook his position.
So far, the voice of Blake has always voted with the majority despite his sharp criticisms of President Trump. But he does not intend to run for a seat in the Senate again, which gives him greater freedom.
He offers himself to his supporters as a supporter of steps outside the party framework. In 2014, he participated with a Democratic opponent in a television show on a desolate island titled "Rayval Servavival".
On Friday, his Republican colleagues were forced to ask for an investigation by the FBI on the accusations made by Belazi Ford, hinting that he could vote against Judge Cavanaugh if the investigation was not conducted.
"The country is torn apart and we have to ensure proper procedures," he said. Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins joined his initiative.
Because of their hesitation, Wemorkoski and Kolens face aggressive campaigning by supporters of Judge Cavanaugh and his opponents, via e-mails, telephone calls and demonstrations in front of their parliamentary offices.
Similar pressure is exerted on three members of the Democratic Senate, which could affect the possibility of re-election in areas closer to the Republicans if they do not support Trump´s choice.
This was Hitkamp (North Dakota), Joe Mancini (West Virginia) and Joe Donnelly (Indiana) did not advertise their positions. They all voted for the former Trump candidate to the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsoch.
Joe Donnelly finally announced on Friday evening that he would vote against Judge Cavanaugh.
