Gov. Charlie Crist still hasn’t decided whether he would vote to confirm Judge Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court, and said he’s not feeling pressure to answer that question soon.

His opponent in the 2010 Republican Senate primary, former House Speaker Marco Rubio, said this morning that, based on what he has seen so far, he ‘d vote no. Crist had told reporters this afternoon that he’s busy right now and hasn’t had time to make up his mind.

“I’ve got a lot of responsibilities in the job that I hold; yesterday I was actually appointing judges,” Crist said. “I think it’s important to note there are members of the Senate Judiciary Committee that have seen every minute of testimony that haven’t made an announcement on it. I don’t feel pressured.”

Reporters also asked Crist today why his Senate campaign is refusing to release detailed electronic records of his massive $4.3 million in early contributions, despite his promise to try to provide those details.

Crist acknowledged having said the volume of contributions has made it “challenging.”

When a Miami Herald reporter said Crist’s campaign already has the data and could easily email it, Crist said: “We’ll adhere to the letter of the law, and look forward to doing so.”

Crist said the same when asked whether he would match the campaign finance standard set last year by presidential candidates, who went beyond legal reporting requirements to disclose lists of “bundlers.”

“We’ll adhere to the letter of the law, and I think it’s important to do so.”
