For nearly two years, some Democrats have proposed packing the Court — that is, expanding the number of seats, and filling them with liberal justices — to overcome the current nominal conservative majority. Biden criticized the idea in 2019, but then, after the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, he would not answer questions about his position on the issue, telling voters that they would find out his position after the election. Biden likewise said that he Ould not provide a list of potential Supreme Court nominees, as Trump did in both 2016 and 2020. At one point, Biden even agreed that voters did not “deserve” to know his position on court-packing.
