Republican Voters Less Concerned About Virus

A new CNBC/Change Research survey “finds 68% of likely voters in the election battlegrounds of Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin said they have ‘very’ or ‘somewhat’ serious concerns about the coronavirus. The share of respondents with major worries about the pandemic dropped from 76% in mid-April.”

“A partisan split appeared to drive the shift. Only 39% of Republicans said they had at least somewhat serious concerns about the coronavirus disease, down from 55% last month. At the same time, 97% of Democrats said they had significant worries, nearly identical to the 98% share in mid-April.”
