    Lisa Murkowski, on floor, said she “listened to the concerns of many in my state,” explaining her opposition. “I was truly leaning towards supporting Judge Kavanaugh as I looked to that record,” saying there was more to consider, including “matters of temperament and demeanor”

        Murkowksi said a judge needs to avoid an “appearance of impropriety” and must instill “public confidence.” Kavanaugh, she said, did not meet those tests and clear “the highest standard” to serve on the court

        @lisamurkowski spoke eloquently, from the heart and from her conscience. She made excellent points, especially on high standards. I am grateful for her thoughtful consideration, for sticking to her integrity, for representing her constituents well. Thank you, Senator. #MeToo

        Sadly the concerns of the great people of Maine were disregarded. Maybe Collins forgot who she represents...

        Literally the worst excuse…. she had no issues with “temperament” during 40 hours of testifying. Only after he got upset AT BEING ACCUSED OF RUNNING A GANG RAPE RING…. @lisamurkowski be better than that…

        Kudos to you, listening to the voters in your state that you represent. Many others did not do that; the result is 2 men who are credibly accused of sexual assault will sit on SCOTUS. Thank you, sincerely. #WomensWave

        Alaska went to Trump by like 15 points, if anything it's the other way around.

        Murkowski already lost one primary. Native Alaskans for her elected and Kavanaugh is a threat to Tribal Sovereignty as early as next month. She crosses them, she’s out in her next primary.

        .@SenatorCollins .@Sen_JoeManchin .@JeffFlake As former Justice Stevens and 2,000+ lawyers have pointed out, Kavanaugh does NOT have the temperament or impartiality required of a SCOTUS. It can be Just. That. Simple.
