  • Please cite the legal mechanism that Obama and the Democratic Senate minority had available to them to force the confirmation of Supreme Court a nominee in 2016. Please be aware that Obama did nominate someone for that vacancy. In fact he nominated someone the Republicans themselves name-dropped as a good option. They methodically and purposefully prevented over 100 judicial nominees from receiving a vote, because they held the majority and there was no legal way to get around it.
