Grassley sees court vacancy issue losing steam in Iowa race
Sen. Chuck Grassley says his refusal to hold hearings on President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee remains a factor but is fading nationally. At a Sigourney town meeting he noted shifts since Justice Scalia’s death, with Iowans appearing to lean toward letting the next president fill the vacancy. A North Star Opinion Research poll shows 47 percent unsure on Garland, 28 percent for confirmation, 25 percent against, while critics pressure Senate action with a billboard outside the Keokuk County Courthouse.
