Confidence in Supreme Court Hits Record Low

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.”
