Kevin McCarthy says Brett Kavanaugh accusations 'drastically' helped GOP candidates

 

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy said Sunday that sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh are making it more likely for Republican candidates to win in November.

McCarthy, R-Calif., said he believes that the allegations, the focus of Thursday testimony from Kavanaugh and accuser Christine Blasey Ford, are making Republicans more likely to get involved and vote.

"Prior to the Kavanaugh hearing, the intensity level was really on the Democratic side," McCarthy said during a Fox News interview.

"More Democrats were wanting to go vote than Republicans. Republicans thought there was not a need," he said. "But in the last week there has been a fundamental shift. People are now becoming upset. Not just at how Justice Kavanaugh was treated, but Dr. Ford. That the Democrats, knowing, had this letter, held it, and then put her though this โ€” you did not have to do this."
