Should the next Supreme Court justice be appointed immediately or aft er January’s presidential inauguration?
Sunya, St. Petersburg: “I believe this decision about the Supreme Court justice should be made after the election, just because there are so many moving parts happening right now and a potential transition. I feel like it just makes the most sense to hold off until that time.”

Teresa Bridges, Gulfport: “I think we need to wait to appoint the new Supreme Court justice after the election, because that is the mandate of the people.”
Jim Mahfet, St. Petersburg: “Yes, we definitely should wait. I think it should reflect the opinion of the current president at that time, to reflect the will of the people that voted him in as president.”
Lynn Carr, Gulfport: “I think we should absolutely wait until the new president, whoever he is, is elected. The precedent was set in 2016 and it should be followed. Fair is fair.”
