Public Content

  • Four issues with limited political support and strong opposition have entered the political dialogue.
    • Only 5% of voters would support a candidate who called for the deportation of Jews.
    • Just 6% would support someone saying only White men should be allowed to vote.
    • Ten percent (10%) would prefer a Congressional candidate who believes New York City is governed by international law and not U.S. law.
    • Seventeen percent (17%) would support someone who believes biological males should be allowed to compete in women's sports.
  • On all of those issues, people who talk politics daily are more likely than voters at large to support people with such fringe views.
    • The first two items above have been advocated by Nick Fuentes, who was recently given a softball interview by Tucker Carlson.
    • The third is a view expressed by the Mayor-elect of New York City, Zohran Mamdani.
    • The fourth is supported by many progressive Democrats and has been enacted into law in many places.
  • It's important to recognize that just because something is openly discussed in the political bubble does not mean it has broad public support.
    • There is broad support for Americans who expressed the following beliefs:
    • We should be judged by the content of our character, not by the color of our skin. (90%)
    • All men and women are created equal. (86%)
    • The strong consensus around America's founding ideals was also reflected in the Napolitan Institute's We The People project, a national conversation with 5 people from every Congressional District.
