Nearly half of Republican voters see a time coming where Americans will “have take the law into their own hands,” according to a new poll. The new poll also punctuates a lack of election confidence and the stark differences between Republicans and Democrats as to what are the most important issues at the current moment.
The new George Washington University poll conducted by YouGov between June 4 and June 23 asked 1,753 registered voters if a time will come when “patriotic Americans have to take the law into their own hands.” The poll found that 47% of Republicans agreed that there would be a time when patriotic Americans will have to take the law into their own hands. Only 9% of Democrats foresaw a situation in the country where they would need to take the law into their own hands.
The concerning poll also discovered that 55% of Republicans supported the possible use of force to preserve the “traditional American way of life,” compared to 15% of Democrats.
The YouGov poll results showed only 44% of Republicans have a “great deal” or “fair amount” of trust in their state election administrators, versus 76% of Democrats. In states that Biden won in the 2020 election, a paltry 24% of Republicans have trust in their state election administrators. In states where Biden won, Democrats have a whoppinig 95% trust in state election officials.
The GW Politics poll found that a mere 20% of Republicans were confident in the 2020 election results, while 90% of Democrats believe the 2020 presidential election results. When asked about their confidence in the 2022 midterm elections, a startling 28% of Republicans were confident, way down from the same question before the 2020 election where 46% of Republicans were confident.
The survey found that 82% of Republicans agreed with the statement: “It is hard to trust the results of elections when so many people will vote for anyone who offers a handout.”
The poll also highlighted the vast differences in what issues Democrats prioritize versus what Republicans see as pressing matters.
- 61% of Republicans and 94% of Democrats see addressing the pandemic as very or somewhat important
- 43% of Republicans and 92% of Democrats say addressing race in this country is very or somewhat important
- 21% of Republicans and 83% of Democrats say that changing the nation’s gun laws is very or somewhat important
- 28% of Republicans and 91% of Democrats see dealing with global climate change as somewhat or very important
- 98% of Republicans think that strengthening the nation’s economy is very or somewhat important compared to the 89% of Democrats
The alarming poll results are the latest forewarning that divisions in the country are rising. An eye-opening poll from earlier this month found that two-thirds of Republicans in the South and nearly half of Democrats on the West Coast want to secede from the United States.
The article about the difference in thinking between dems and republicans shows just how incredibly stupid republicans are on every point
You tell me how flooding the US with a million illegal immigrants with the plan of allowing them to receive unemployment and medical benefits helps the US and it’s taxpayers and workforce? That’s Democrat thinking for you. Talk about stupid ideas.
im one of those stupid republicans. yes, i think if you riot, loot, set fires, gang up and intimidate, commit assaults, rape, and murder you should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. yes, i think we should have security on our borders, not just let any julio jose or juan in just because they want in. yes, i believe in the constitution, all of it, and it says freedom of religion not freedom from religion. it also says i can own firearms too. and i also believe in free speech for everyone, even for idiots like you that i dont agree with. but unfortunately for me you dems want to restrict my freedom of speech because im not a dumbass that agrees with your opinions.
Really??? Then why is it that Dems are letting illegals in the country unchecked and with Covid???
Others could say the same about Democrats. I suggest that you think about Venezuela. It went from a prosperous nation to a starving one under socialism; which is under lying too many US Government decisions today.
No. If anything, it shows the opposite. Of course, that is why BOTH sides believe some form of separation may be needed.
Washington DC is the District of Corruption – 99% democratic. Who is stupid – dems

off you idiot traitor!
I was just about to say the exact same thing but replacing your inference about party Republicans with dumbocraps!
I think your poll is bullshit. Period.
What makes you think the survey is flawed? If the poll agreed with you and your view, would you change your mind? Writing all that, I’d like to see the exact questions, the age, sex, race and demographics of the respondents GWU/YouGov survey (full disclosure- I’m a member of YouGov)
Ahhh…another mind with a mouth full of filth.
A beautiful young woman (the Blessed Mother) appeared to George Washington in his locked office. She then was the first to call him the ‘Father of the Nation’, and showed him apparitions of the final boundaries of the USA, from ocean to ocean, and all of it’s future great gleaming cities. She told him of the three great tribulations that the USA would go through. The first being the Civil War, then WW II, and finally a war on our own soil with many foreign armies and Americans fighting each other, which would just about destroy the USA. But in the end she told George that good would win out and the traitorous socialist Democrats would be defeated. But the USA would never again be as great as it once was under the blessings and graces of God. George Washington wrote down his entire experience with this young woman, after she disappeared in his locked study. The ‘Smithsonian Institute’ has the papers that George Washington wrote of this experience, which the Readers Digest publishes a digest of those papers every few years. The Democrats now have this nation at the point of that third great tribulation, and the religiously devout feel and know this is coming, as shown by the polling in this article.
I DEFY you to cite one remotely reliable source for ONE WORD of your rant.
I’m Military trained and ready!
Oooh I’m scared
In 1776 there were a majority of Americans who thought the law would have to be taken into their own hands.
It is time once again to water the tree of liberty, preferable using the blood of the traitorous left.
I’m in total agreement. It’s time. IT’S TIME!
With all the B.S. going on I surprised nobody has taken the law into their own hands. If and or when it does, lets hope that that group will not start shooting. There is a right way and a wrong way to take the law into your own hands. Idiots need not apply to participate.
It is inevitable. Freedom cannot coexist with Communism, which is where we are at.
The most bloodless solution is for states to secede and establish true Republics as we once were. People will move to suit their desires.
Otherwise, there is going to be a civil war for sure.
