Political Division in America Today

  • The political division in America today has been driven by an elite narrative, pitting the right and left against each other. Each side believes the other side is wrong, resulting in little room for productive rhetoric and ultimately in terrible political violence.
    • When asked in October 2024, 42% of registered voters thought if Donald Trump won the presidency, progressives would react with violence. Conversely, 48% thought if Harris won the presidency, conservatives would react with violence.
  • Sixty-six percent (66%) of voters rate relations between Republicans and Democrats as poor.
    • Just 48% of Republicans and 52% of Democrats said that they’d prefer to live in a neighborhood with neighbors from both parties.
