Poll Says Americans Are Fed Up With Violence in Major Cities. 62% Say It Will Affect Their Vote


Rasmussen: Voters Favor Crackdown on Violent Protests; Most Democrats Disagree

Voters are ready for the police to put an end to the continuing violent protests nationwide. Most also say the protests will be important to their vote in the upcoming elections.

When asked which is closer to their own thinking, 50% of Likely U.S. Voters say the police should crack down on the protests to bring them to an end. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 38% disagree and believe the protests should be allowed to continue until the protesters decide to end them. Eleven percent (11%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

There’s sharp partisan disagreement on this question, though. While 75% of Republicans and a plurality (47%) of unaffiliated voters think the police should crack down on the protests, just 31% of Democrats agree. Fifty-six percent (56%) of Democrats say the protests should be permitted to continue until the protesters want to end them.

WNU Editor: Only 72% of all voters are saying they are concerned about the growing level of violent protest nationwide?!?!?!? I would think the number would be closer to 90%. I would also add one more observation that the poll omits. Many Americans are angry. Correction. Very angry.
