Lindsey Graham: Let’s vote on Kavanaugh

Published September 19, 2018 12:13pm ET



Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said Wednesday that it’s time for the Senate Judiciary Committee to vote on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, now that the woman accusing him of sexual assault from the early 1980s is refusing to testify about her claim.

“Requiring an FBI investigation of a 36 year old allegation (without specific references to time or location) before Professor Ford will appear before the Judiciary Committee is not about finding the truth, but delaying the process till after the midterm elections,” Graham tweeted after Christine Blasey Ford’s lawyer said she wanted an FBI investigation before she testifies.
