As Americans slowly emerge from two months of coronavirus quarantine, partisan divides are emerging – and growing – right along with them, according to a recent survey.
Majorities on both sides of the aisle say they're somewhat or very concerned about the pandemic, according to a survey from the Democracy Fund + UCLA Nationscape Project. But the partisan split over that concern mirrors political leadership.
But among Democrats, concern is relatively flat, according to an analysis from Nationscape Insights, a project of Democracy Fund, UCLA and USA TODAY. When asked if the threat of the coronavirus was exaggerated for political reasons, 46% of all Americans said that statement was probably or"definitely" true compared with 35% at the beginning of April.
But among Democrats, just 33% said the threat had been exaggerated for political purposes, up slightly from 28% in April, according to the survey.
