Kavanaugh later voted in favor of the Supreme Court\u2019s controversial 2022 Dobbs decision to overturn abortion rights under <i>Roe v. Wade<\/i>. <\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Collins, arguably the closest thing the Senate Republican caucus has to a moderate holdout, tried to defend her backing for Kavanaugh during a Fox appearance on Monday. \u201cLet me be clear that I disagreed with the Supreme Court\u2019s 6-to-3 decision overturning <i>Roe v. Wade<\/i>,\u201d she said. \u201cBut the fact is that whether Justice Kavanaugh were confirmed or not, <i>Roe v. Wade<\/i> would have been overturned, given the 6-to-3 vote.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>That is incorrect. The Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 ruling, which established a constitutional right to abortion up to the point of fetal viability, by 5 justices to 4, with Kavanaugh\u2019s vote one of the five votes without which <i>Roe v. Wade<\/i> could have survived. <\/p>\n<p>CNN\u2019s Erin Burnett was quick to seize on Collins\u2019 blunder in a segment about the senator\u2019s interview with Fox earlier in the day. \u201cThe part of the Dobbs decision overturning <i>Roe<\/i> was actually 5-to-4, with Chief Justice Roberts joining liberal justices,\u201d Burnett said.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=2039\">MAGA Curious CBS Boss Hit by Stunning Ratings Collapse<\/a><\/p>\n<p>She then asked network political commentator Karen Finney whether Platner, who has faced allegations over his past treatment of women, is necessarily the best voice to challenge Collins on the issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, here\u2019s one other problem, though, with what she\u2019s saying,\u201d Finney remarked. \u201cShe also opposed the Women\u2019s Health Protection Act, which many of us saw as a way to protect against what happened with the Dobbs decision.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Women\u2019s Health Protection Act would have codified abortion rights in federal law, blunting the impact of Dobbs nationwide. It failed in the Senate in 2022, with Collins voting against it on the grounds that it swept further than <i>Roe v. Wade<\/i>. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s got some fact-checking of her own to do there,\u201d Finney said. She then added of Platner, \u201cLook, if people believe that he could be a vote in support of women\u2019s right to reproductive freedom, then when voters go to the polls, they\u2019ll make the decision whether or not they trust him ultimately to be that champion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=2037\">Panicked Trump, 80, Spins Wild Tale When Cornered on Pool Slime<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The Daily Beast has contacted Collins\u2019 office for comment on this story. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A veteran Republican official just bungled the numbers on a key issue her opponent has weaponized against her in the battle for her seat in the November midterms.
