The nomination of Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court has sharpened divisions in American politics. On Friday, Gallup released new poll data showing that the antipathy women express toward Kavanaugh is reflected in their views toward the Supreme Court on the whole. While the percentage of Americans who approve of the Supreme Court has held fairly steady, the percentage of women who do has dropped to a point not seen since 2011. In our poll, men prefer the Democratic candidate by one point, and women prefer the Democrat by 25. There’s probably overlap between support for Democrats among women and antipathy to the Supreme Court.
