Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy will retire this coming summer, according to Sen. Dean Heller (R., Nev.).
Heller made the comments in audio (https://www.politico.com/story/2018/03/09/dean-heller-supreme-court-vacancy-audio-448240) Politico obtained from an event.
Heller said that he believes a vacancy in the Supreme Court will bolster enthusiasm for voters.
"Kennedy is going to retire around sometime early summer," Heller said. "Which I’m hoping will get our base a little motivated because right now they’re not very motivated. But I think a new Supreme Court justice will get them motivated."
Heller also predicted that Sen. Mike Lee (R., Utah) would be a candidate for Kennedy's vacant seat.
