The Washington Examiner/YouGov poll published on Wednesday reveals a public passionate about, and deeply split on, the Supreme Court. Perhaps surprisingly, given this, it also reveals a public averse to extremes.
For fully 79%, the appointment of a new justice will weigh heavily when they vote in the presidential election, with 58% regarding it as “very important.” But agreement here doesn’t imply concurrence over how the matter should be handled; 51% say the nomination should wait until after the election and 42% want it done now. The poll’s 3.6% margin of error means that split could be as close as 47%-46%.
