Gallup finds that support among Americans for Ketanji Brown Jackson's confirmation is one of the highest for a SCOTUS nominee since 1987. And several other polls taken over the past few weeks find that a majority of Americans like her for the job.
A majority of Americans want judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the Supreme Court, according to several polls.
Gallup says it took polls measuring support for all Supreme Court nominees since 1987, with the exceptions of current Justices Anthony Kennedy, David Souter and Breyer, as well as Douglas Ginsburg — who withdrew shortly after he was nominated, and before he could face a confirmation hearing. Among the nominees named in the poll, Jackson’s 58% “in favor” value is the second highest — she only trails now-current Chief Justice of the Supreme Court John Roberts.
