Initial results of a national exit poll reveal that two-thirds of voters in this year's election express some level of confidence in the fairness and accuracy of the election process. However, these views are starkly divided along party lines.
According to the poll, approximately 90% of Vice President Kamala Harris supporters feel confident in the fairness of the election, while only around 50% of former President Donald Trump supporters share the same sentiment.
Furthermore, the poll indicates that about three-quarters of voters believe that democracy in the United States is currently under threat, with only a quarter considering it secure. Alarmingly, close to 40% of respondents feel that democracy is very threatened.
Concerns about potential violence stemming from the election results are also prevalent among voters, with approximately 70% expressing worry about the possibility of unrest.
These findings underscore the deep divisions and apprehensions present in the electorate regarding the integrity of the electoral process and the state of democracy in the country. As the election results continue to unfold, it is evident that addressing these concerns and fostering unity will be crucial for the nation's future stability and cohesion.
