A majority of Democrat voters think that the Supreme Court is a racist, sexist institution that ought to be abolished, according to a new survey commissioned by the Heartland Institute. And in an obvious threat to the court’s future, almost as many young people aged 19 to 39 think the same way.

The national poll of 1,025 US voters split vehemently down party lines, with 53% of Democrats in favor of abolishing the current Supreme Court and substituting it with a “new, democratically elected . . . court with justices chosen by the American people directly,” and 33% “strongly” in favor. Only 21% of Republicans and 38% of independents preferred the proposition.

A majority (54%) of young people aged 19 to 39 desired the court abolished. Overall, only 37% of total voters agreed, according to the Rasmussen poll conducted on July 6 and 7, nearly two weeks after the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v Wade judgment on abortion.

While 67% of Democrats think the court is a “fundamentally sexist institution that favors men over women,” only 18% of Republicans and 36% of independents agreed.

Altogether, 41% of total voters agreed, with women (48%) holding a more tragic view of sexism in the court than men (41%).

On the question of race, 56% of Democrats think that the court is “a fundamentally racist institution” compared to 14% of Republicans, 29% of independents and 34% of total voters.

Fifty-four percent of black voters agreed, compared to 27% of white voters and 50% of Hispanics.

On the radical proposition of a constitutional amendment to give the United Nations the power to reverse Supreme Court decisions on decisions it thinks violate human rights, less than half (47%) of Democrats were opposed, with 39% in favor and 11% uncertain.

Among Republicans, 77% were opposed to UN oversight and 17% were in favor. Only 37% of total voters favored the idea, though young voters aged 19 to 39 were more positive, with 48% in favor, compared to 27% of those aged 40 to 64 and 9% of those aged over 64.

While a majority of total voters (52%) held a favorable opinion of the Supreme Court, fewer than half of women, young voters and black voters agreed.

“What this poll shows is that a majority of Democratic voters are utterly delusional about public policy and completely out of step with the vision most Americans have of their country,” announced Justin Haskins, the Heartland Institute’s Editorial Director.

“Not only do most Democrats now have radical opinions about alleged racism and sexism at the Supreme Court, but they also want to substantially pack the court and even abolish it in its existing form–reforms opposed by the vast majority of other demographics.”

Even more troubling, says Haskins, is that roughly half of young people hold negative opinions of the Supreme Court.
