Kavanaugh-Ford Hearing Spurred More Division

A new CBS News poll finds 37% of Americans do not think the Senate should confirm Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh (up from 30% opposed last week) and 35% think the Senate should confirm (up from 32% last week) as partisan sentiments have hardened.

Democratic opposition has gone from 60% to 68%, and Republican support has gone from 69% to 75%. Independents are more closely divided and slightly more in favor of confirmation than opposed.
