The Alabama Republican Party said Friday that U.S. Sen. Doug Jones', D-Ala., intention to vote against confirming Brett Kavanaugh "betrays our state."

Jones indicated Thursday night that he would not vote to confirm Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court, citing what he believed was Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's credible testimony that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when he was a high school student. Alabama's junior senator also suggested that the Senate Judiciary Committee's decision not to subpoena Kavanaugh friend Mark Judge, whom Ford said witnessed the incident, and the committee's failure to receive all relevant documents on Kavanaugh impacted his decision.

"His no vote betrays our state and his actions highlight his disingenuous promise to represent the majority of Alabamians. After siding against Alabamians and President Trump, Sen. Jones is now firmly in the Schumer/Feinstein/Warren/Sanders column," the party said in a statement. "After his repeated no votes, Sen. Jones is now a full-fledged member of the 'Never Trump' resistance. Alabama will not forget his betrayal. Senator Doug Jones' days in the United States Senate are numbered."

Of the four cabinet-level nomination votes taken by Jones since he was seated in January, the senator has voted to confirm three of President Trump's nominees.

The Alabama Republican Party suggested that it believes Ford "suffered a traumatic event in her youth" but that Kavanaugh did not sexually assault her.

"Anyone who experiences an assault should be taken seriously. All avenues should be exhausted to help a victim and to find the truth pertinent to each individual situation. It is clear Dr. Ford suffered from a traumatic event in her youth, and like Judge Kavanaugh's daughter, we should pray for her to receive strength, peace and healing," the party said. "Nevertheless, there was no case made that Brett Kavanaugh was involved in her incident. Actually, the opposite happened as witnesses she named refuted her story and Kavanaugh convincingly denies it."
