Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The American public has the least direct role in deciding who will fill a vacancy on the Supreme Court. While public opinion can influence the process indirectly, the Constitution does not grant the public a direct role in the nomination or confirmation process. This process is directly handled by the President (who nominates a candidate) and the Senate (which confirms the nominee). The FBI may conduct background checks, and the American Bar Association (ABA) may provide evaluations of candidates, but these entities support the process rather than decide.
