October 17, 2019: Forty-six percent (46%) of voters nationwide have a favorable opinion of the United Nations. A ScottRasmussen.com national survey found that 19% have an unfavorable view, 28% offer a neutral assessment, and 7% are not sure.[1]

This modestly positive view may be tied to the fact that 48% believe the UN generally supports the United States while 21% disagree.

However, when there is a disagreement between UN policy and the U.S. Constitution, it’s no contest. Seventy percent (70%) believe that our nation should follow the Constitution. Just 13% think we should follow UN policy.
