A majority of voters lack confidence the US Supreme Court would be politically neutral in resolving potential legal challenges around the 2024 presidential election, a survey from Pew Research Center found.

Only 20% of registered voters polled are highly confident the court can be unbiased, but they’re split on party lines — with 34% of those supporting Donald Trump expressing confidence in the court’s neutrality, versus 6% for Vice President Kamala Harris’ backers.
