Only 42% Have a Favorable Opinion of Supreme Court

About as many have unfavorable opinion

Forty-two percent (42%) of Americans have a favorable opinion of the U.S. Supreme Court. A Rasmussen Reports survey found that nearly as many, 41%, have an unfavorable opinion. By way of comparison, 67% of Americans have a favorable opinion of the U.S. military.

Liberal voters have a higher opinion of the Court than conservatives. Among those who are to the left of center politically, 47% have a favorable opinion of the Court while 34% hold an unfavorable view.

Most conservatives (53%) have an unfavorable opinion of the Supreme Court. Just 36% offer a favorable opinion.

Just over a month ago, before handing down controversial rulings on the Ten Commandments and eminent domain, the nation's highest Court was viewed favorably by 39% and unfavorably by 33%. Five years ago, a July 1, 2000 found that 35% of Americans agreed with most Supreme Court decisions while 30% disagreed.

Less than half the people respond in surveys that they have confidence in Congress, but most are happy with their own representatives.
