(Daily Signal<\/a>)\u00a0A plurality of Americans support Senate confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett for the Supreme Court, with a boost of 9 percentage points since President Donald Trump announced her nomination, according to a Morning Consult poll<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Barrett\u2019s support is increasing among Republicans, Democrats, and independents, the poll found.<\/p>\n

Almost half, or 46%, in a poll of about 2,000 registered voters, say the Senate should confirm Barrett to the Supreme Court. Nearly as many, 43%, say the Senate should confirm her as quickly as possible regardless of who wins the Nov. 3 presidential election.<\/p>\n

Morning Consult conducted the poll Friday through Sunday.<\/p>\n

Just 31% say the Senate should reject the Barrett nomination, a 3-point drop from a Sept. 26 Morning Consult poll that also surveyed about 2,000 registered voters.<\/p>\n

The earlier poll, conducted the day Trump announced Barrett as his third pick for the high court, had 9% fewer backing her confirmation regardless of who wins the election.<\/p>\n

In the new poll, a higher share\u201437%\u2014still says the Senate should vote to confirm Barrett only if Trump wins the 2020 presidential election. Still, that\u2019s down 3 points from the earlier poll.<\/p>\n

Before Trump announced Barrett as his nominee, half of voters said the winner of the presidential race should pick the successor to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.<\/p>\n

Since late 2017, Barrett has been a judge on the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which covers Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin.<\/p>\n

Less surprisingly, the Morning Consult poll found that 77% of Republican voters back Barrett\u2019s confirmation. That\u2019s up 6 points from the earlier poll.<\/p>\n

More surprisingly, the share of Democratic voters who back her confirmation increased by 10 points, to 24%.<\/p>\n

Also among Democrats, 59% said the Senate should wait to see who wins the presidential election. That\u2019s down 20 points from 79%, according to Morning Consult.<\/p>\n

The new poll found that 36% of independent voters said Barrett should be confirmed to the high court, an 8-point bump from the earlier poll.<\/p>\n

The results of another Morning Consult poll show perhaps better news for Democrats, as 54% of voters surveyed say the Senate should definitely or probably delay a confirmation hearing after Trump\u2019s diagnosis with COVID-19.<\/p>\n

Among parties, that\u2019s 75% of Democrats, 30% of Republicans, and 46% of independents. That poll surveyed 892 voters Monday.<\/p>\n
