(Milwaukee, WI) -- A new poll shows overwhelming support for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's Supreme Court nomination.

The Marquette Law School poll released Wednesday find two-thirds of people surveyed said they would vote to confirm Jackson if they were senators. The poll shows nearly three in ten Republicans supporting Jackson, along with more than two-thirds of independents and 95-percent of Democrats. If confirmed, Jackson would be the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court.

The Senate Judiciary Committee is expected to vote on her nomination on Monday and Democrats are pushing for a final vote by Easter.
