America’s confidence in the US Supreme Court hit a record low this month as the justices are expected to issue a ruling overturning the 1973 Roe v. Wade as soon as Friday, a new survey found.
Only 25% of Americans have a “great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in the Supreme Court, an 11 percentage point drop from last year, according to a Gallup survey.
Gallup – which has measured confidence in the country’s highest court for 50 years – said the previous low of confidence was 30% in 2014.
Approximately 43% of respondents said they had “some” confidence in the Supreme Court, while 31% said they had “very little” or “none.”
Broken down by parties, the survey – released Thursday – found a massive drop in support from Democrats and Independents. Specifically, only 13% of Democrats have confidence in the court, compared to 30% previously and approximately 25% of Independents have confidence, while 40% did before.
