Number of the Day: 53 percent of voters rate Supreme Court performance as good or excellent

September 23, 2020: Fifty-three percent (53%) of voters nationwide rate the performance of the U.S. Supreme Court as good or excellent. A Scott Rasmussen national survey found that just 8% say poor. In between are 32% who say the Court’s performance has been just fair.[1]

Support is found in all segments of the nation. Sixty-one percent (61%) of Republicans give the Court positive reviews as do 54% of Democrats. Among other voters, 43% share that view.[1]

Fifty-five percent (55%) of the most conservative voters give thumbs up for the Court. So do 57% of the most liberal voters.[1]

Ideologically, 33% believe the Court’s balance is about right while 30% say too conservative and 20% too liberal.[1]

In its treatment of protestors who commit violent acts, 44% believe the courts and legal system have been too lenient while 18% say too harsh.[1]
