June 29, 2020: Fifty-two percent (52%) of voters nationwide approve of the way the Supreme Court is performing its role. A Ballotpedia survey found that 31% disapprove and 17% are not sure.[1]

The survey also found that a narrow plurality (30%) believe the court's ideological balance is about right. However, 28% believe it is too conservative and 19% believe it is too liberal.[1]

Sixty-two percent (62%) of Hispanic voters approve of the court's performance as do 53% of white voters. However, just 39% of Black voters share that assessment. Among Black voters, 44% disapprove.[1]

A plurality of Republicans believe the court is too liberal while a plurality of Democrats believe it is too conservative. Seven out of ten independent voters believe either that the balance is about right (30%) or are not sure (40%).[1]

Friday’s Number of the Day showed that 47% of voters see Supreme Court nominations as a very important voting issue.
