/ world today news/ The majority of Americans believe that Republican supporters are not wavering after the riots on January 6, 2021, a new poll shows
On Saturday, the third anniversary of the Jan. 6, 2021, riots on Capitol Hill, a poll showed that Americans are increasingly looking to put the unpleasant incident in the rearview mirror.
What happened? Majorities of Americans think Donald Trump’s name should appear on state electoral rolls, according to a new CBS News/YouGov poll. Of those polled, 54% supported Trump, while 46% wanted his name removed.
The survey was conducted among 2,157 American adults interviewed between January 3 and 5, 2024. About 90 percent of Republicans and 56 percent of independents want the former president to remain on the lists, as do 19 percent of Democrats. Support for Trump is stronger among men and people over the age of 30.
However, the results of the 2020 elections do not give such great hopes for a peaceful change in 2024. According to the poll, the percentage of people who believe that the losing country will accept the result of a presidential election peacefully is only slightly more higher than those who thought the opposite: the ratio was 51% to 49%.
The percentage of people who thought that Joe Biden was the legitimate winner in the 2020 election was 61%, the rest did not accept him as legitimate. Polls at the time were mostly along party lines, with 93% of Democrats considering Biden legitimate, 29% of Republicans doing the same, while the percentage for independents was 62%.
Today, most Americans say that democracy and the rule of law are under threat. About 70% of respondents feel very or somewhat threatened, and only 30% answer that they feel safe or somewhat safe.
As for the action taken against the rioters who stormed the US Capitol, 22% said they approved, while 78% disapproved. CBS News noted that disapproval of the unrest among Republicans fell by nearly half in 2020. to just 32% today.
Why is this question important? The request to remove Trump from the electoral rolls stems from the argument that the former president incited rebellion. And this is a violation of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, which states that no one may hold public office if he has participated in riots [срещу властта].
Colorado and Maine were the states that decided to remove Trump from the rolls, but California and Michigan decided to keep him, despite legal challenges and pressure from Democrats.
The U.S. Supreme Court said Friday it will decide whether Trump should be impeached on grounds of involvement in election sabotage. The Supreme Court must rule on the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision and has announced it will rule quickly, given the state’s primary election is scheduled for Jan. 23.
