Approximately 38 percent of American voters do not think elections in the United States are "fair," a new NPR/Marist poll revealed on Monday.
WASHINGTON (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 17th September, 2018) Approximately 38 percent of American voters do not think elections in the United States are "fair," a new NPR/Marist poll revealed on Monday.
The poll found that 38 percent of voters think elections are either not very fair or not at all fair. Non-white voters, women and Democrats were far more likely to regard US elections as unfair than were white voters, men and Republicans, the poll revealed.
The same poll found that more than two-thirds of those surveyed think Russia will use social media to spread false information ahead of the 2018 midterm elections.
US officials have accused Russia of interfering in the 2016 election, but Moscow has denied allegations of meddling, calling such charges "absurd."
The poll was based on a survey of 949 adults between September 5 and 9, and had a margin of error of 3.6 percentage points.
