July 9, 2021: Fifty-nine percent (59%) of voters approve of the way the U.S. Supreme Court is performing its job. A Scott Rasmussen national survey found that 25% disapprove, and 16% are not sure.[1]
Those totals include 17% who strongly approve and 7% who strongly disapprove.[1]
These figures are consistent with many years of polling data. The Supreme Court is consistently viewed more favorably than any other branch of government.[1]
Approval comes from 65% of Democrats and 61% of Republicans.[1]
As with many topics, independent voters are less engaged: 40% approve and another 40% are not sure.[1]
Sixty-three percent (63%) of Hispanic voters approve, along with 62% of Black voters and 59% of white voters.[1]
Voters who prefer the policies of former President Donald Trump or Senator Bernie Sanders offer modestly lower opinions of the court performance compared to those who prefer traditional Republican or Democratic policies.[1]
