Majority Disapprove of Reversing Roe Monmouth University Polling Institute Six in ten Americans disapprove – nearly all of them strongly – of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v.

Confidence in Supreme Court collapses as just 33% agree with decision to overturn Roe v. Wade Andrew Romano, Yahoo News A new Yahoo News/YouGov poll shows that more than six in 10 Americans (61%) now have little or no confidence in the Supreme Court after its decision Friday to overturn Roe v. Wade, and 45% of registered voters now say they would vote for a Democrat for Congress if the election were held today. When explicitly asked to choose between a “pro-choice” Democrat (47%) and a “pro-life” Republican (32%), that same gap actually doubles again, to 15 points.
