Supreme Court justices' ideologies don't always fit 'liberal' and 'conservative' labels

You’d think it would be easy to tell the difference between the two, but judicial scholars will tell you it’s more difficult than you might think.

Key Points: 
  • You’d think it would be easy to tell the difference between the two, but judicial scholars will tell you it’s more difficult than you might think.
  • Even though they were viewing the same facts and working with the same laws, “It may well have been the most divided court in Supreme Court history,” Pritchett wrote at the time.
  • His work led to a wave of scholars searching for personal attitudes and judicial ideologies as a determinant of Supreme Court voting behavior.

Measuring ideologies

    • Their research, and work by judicial scholar Lee Epstein, shows many cases where justices crossed traditional judicial ideologies on Supreme Court rulings in the 2021-22 term.
    • And according to SCOTUSblog, an average of 48% of Supreme Court rulings from 2010 to 2018 were unanimous.
    • Scholars have noticed that labeling justices’ ideologies based upon their voting records in court rulings can involve flawed logic.

Times change

    • Another challenge with labeling justices’ views is that politics change over time.
    • “You probably would classify it as conservative because it seems to patronize and protect women.
    • The justices unanimously struck down that conviction, saying it unconstitutionally restricted free speech based on the content of that speech.
    • A conservative could also claim victory because the ruling restricts the power of local governments.

Shifting considerations

    • For instance, Gorsuch votes along conservative lines on economic issues but on more liberal grounds on issues involving Native American rights.
    • But he also wrote the majority decision in the 2020 ruling on McGirt v. Oklahoma, which upheld sovereignty promises the federal government made to several tribes in 19th century treaties.
    • The justices themselves often reject the idea of judicial partisanship.
    • Roberts again rejected the criticism: “We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges,” he wrote in a statement to The Associated Press.
