WASHINGTON (AP) — Three senators may be experiencing some deja vu when they hear Thursday from Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford, who says Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her in high school. The committee heard testimony from both Thomas and Hill before the Senate ultimately voted to confirm President George H.W. Vermont Democrat Patrick Leahy, Utah Republican Orrin Hatch and Iowa Republican Chuck Grassley were all on the committee in 1991. GOP leaders set a committee vote for Friday and hope to confirm Kavanaugh early next week. After the first round of Senate hearings for Kavanaugh, Leahy wrote an opinion piece alleging that Kavanaugh had misled lawmakers during the hearings and that he couldn't support his nomination.
