Presidential Election Supremely Important

“ Four Supreme Court justices enter the next term in their 70s, and any changes during the next presidential term could tip the balance of the court on some of the nation’s hottest social issues, including same-sex marriage, civil rights and abortion.”

The potential to replace Supreme Court Justices remains a key factor in the presidential race. Governor Romney has recognized that the next president will likely appoint new judges to the high court and has subsequently warned, “Our freedoms would be in the hands of an Obama Court, not just for four years, but for the next 40. That must not happen.”
