Democrats’ faith in election results is falling but still exceeds Republicans’, AP-NORC poll finds

Democratic voters’ trust in accurate vote counts fell to 55% as most say presidential interference is a major problem, according to AP-NORC.

  • Registered Democratic voters have lost faith in U.S. election results, with confidence in accurate vote counting dropping from 75% in 2022 to 55% this year, according to a new AP-NORC poll conducted Oct. 8-12.
  • About 9 in 10 Democratic voters view the president attempting to influence election outcomes as "a major problem," a concern that intensified since President Donald Trump returned to the White House last year.
  • Republican confidence in election results has risen slightly since 2022, though GOP voters remain less likely to trust the electoral process than Democrats, the survey found.
  • Some voters cited escalating threats from Trump regarding potential election involvement, while critics fear voter intimidation following a Department of Justice plan to deploy 1,000 monitors to polling locations.
  • With the Nov. 3 elections approaching, Trump has signaled he wants federal prosecutors to monitor for fraud, suggesting he may pursue legal challenges if vote counts do not go his way.
