With race-driven anti-police protests nationwide, one-in-three voters continue to believe America is on the brink of another civil war. Blacks are the least optimistic that the protests will lead to positive change but the most supportive of removing Confederate symbols from public display.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 34% of Likely U.S. Voters think the United States will experience a second civil war sometime in the next five years, but that includes only nine percent (9%) who say it’s Very Likely. This compares to 31% and 11% respectively two years ago. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

While Democrats were more worried about pending civil war in 2018, now Republicans (40%) are more likely than Democrats (28%) and voters not affiliated with either major party (38%) to see a second civil war on the horizon.

Comment: What is stunning about this poll is the very fact the question is even being asked! This would have been unheard of 20 to 30 years ago, to even ask such an outlandish question. Our nation has fallen so far, that pollsters are starting to ask unthinkable questions of the public, and the sad thing is, the chances have gone up from the year before! This should be a wake up call to our national condition and we each need to get our house in order and stay away from the cities and urban areas. George Eaton
