Page 6A NATION BRIEFLY East Oregonian Cracks emerge in GOP refusal to consider Supreme Court pick WASHINGTON (AP) — Concerted Republican opposition to considering President Barack Obama’s pick for the Supreme Court showed early signs of splintering on Wednesday as a handful of inÀuential senators opened the door to a possible con¿rmation hearing One Republican even suggested the president should nominate a candidate from his state Te[as Sen -ohn Cornyn, the No 2 Republican in the Senate, did not rule out a committee hearing on Obama’s forthcoming nominee to replace the late -ustice Antonin Scalia Sen /isa 0urkowski, R-Alaska, went a step further and said she’d support such a move “I do believe that the nominee should get a hearing,´ 0urkowski, who’s running for re-election this fall, told reporters in -uneau, Alaska “The question then becomes, we have a hearing on a nominee But that doesn’t necessarily mean that that ends up in a vote´ Sen 'ean Heller, R-Nev, said chances of Senate approval were slim but added that Obama should “use this opportunity to put the will of the people ahead of advancing a liberal agenda´ on the high court “But should he decide to nominate someone to the Supreme Court, who knows — maybe it’ll be a Nevadan,´ Heller said Sen Orrin Hatch, R-8tah, who sits on the Senate -udiciary Committee, said he opposes a ¿libuster to prevent a vote, as some Republicans have suggested -udiciary Chairman Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, has said he’d wait to see who Obama selects before ruling out a hearing in his committee Those senators formed a cautious but growing chorus of voices breaking with the absolutist position of Senate 0aMority /eader 0itch 0cConnell, who has told the White House not to even bother nominating a candidate The Kentucky Republican and several Republicans up for re-election have maintained that voters in November’s presidential election should have a say in the direction of the nation’s highest court Cornyn, 0cConnell’s deputy, Television > Today’s highlights agreed that it should be left to the next president to pick Scalia’s successor Still, Cornyn said it was up to Grassley to decide whether to schedule a hearing, and to 0cConnell to decide on a full Senate vote if the -udiciary Committee were to vote on the nominee 0cConnell has shown no signs of softening his opposition to con¿rming an Obama nominee, which could put vulnerable Republicans in a precarious position as his party works to keep control of the Senate in the November elections But Senate 'emocratic leader Harry Reid predicted Republicans would “cave in” and said he hoped Obama would announce a selection “in the next 10 days or so” Apple refuses to help feds bypass iPhone security NEW YORK (AP) — Faced with a federal Mudge’s order to help investigators break into an iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino shooters, Apple may well argue that the request places an unreasonable Thursday Morning 6 PBS ABC NBC CBS FOX STATION AM 6:30 AgDay Friends Good Day Oregon at 6 News News KOIN 6 News at 6 a.m. Wake Up Northwest KGW News at Sunrise Northwest Northwest KATU News Morning Stretch W.L.Yoga (31) KTNW (59) OPB 13 Sit and Fit Jet Go!
