Ketanji Jackson — ‘Supreme Court has to be prepared to respond to election dispute.’

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson in a new interview said she is “prepared as anyone can be” for the possibility that this year’s presidential election could end up before the high court.

“I think there are legal issues that arise out of the political process,” Jackson said during an interview with CBS’s Norah O’Donnell.

“And so, the Supreme Court has to be prepared to respond — if — if that should be necessary,” she added.

Jackson’s rare interview comes as she prepares to release her memoir, “Lovely One,” next week. An interview excerpt will air on Tuesday’s “CBS Evening News” before the full sit-down is broadcast this weekend on “CBS News Sunday Morning,” according to the network.

“Are you prepared that this election could end up before the Supreme Court?” O’Donnell asked the justice.
