These charts are from the latest NBC News / Wall Street Journal Poll -- done between September 16th and 19th of a national sample of 900 registered voters, with a 3.27 point margin of error.
It shows that while support for confirming Brett Kavanaugh has risen by 2 points since July (from 32% to 34%), opposition has risen by 12 points (26% to 38%). That means net approval has gone from a positive 6 points to a negative 4 points.
Net support has risen among Republicans by 7 points, but has dropped among Independents by 12 points and among Democrats by 16 points.
These are not the kind of numbers that will help Republicans in November if they try to force through Kavanaugh's confirmation.
Note in the chart below that Kavanaugh is the most unpopular Supreme Court nominee since Robert Bork.
