The latest five surveys as each pollster published them, compiled by VoteHub (CC BY 4.0) and retrieved 2026-11-02. We only display them — no calculation, weighting or editing. A single survey often reports all adults and registered voters separately, so the same pollster and dates can appear twice; where approve and disapprove add up to less than 100%, the rest were unsure or did not answer.

The Trump administration has appealed to the Supreme Court, alleging that a California list of more than 20,000 ballots includes votes cast by non-US citizens. Multiple courts and independent analyses have rejected the claims. The Justice Department wants California to separate suspected illegal ballots while voter status is checked; the state says the administration’s identification process is likely flawed and error-prone.

The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to stop California from counting mail-in ballots from more than 20,000 voters it says are not US citizens. California warned this could disenfranchise eligible voters. After lower courts rejected the request, the administration filed an emergency appeal.
