Young Democrat voters are “more likely to despise the other party,” a poll released by Axios on Tuesday found.
According to the report, Democrats are “far more likely to dismiss people than Republicans.” The poll found that 71 percent of Democrats would not go on a date with someone who holds opposing views, 37 percent would not be friends with a Republican, and 30 percent would not work for someone with a different voting history.
“Why it matters: Partisan divides — as each side inhabits parallel political, cultural and media universes —make a future of discord and distrust in the U.S. all the more likely,” Axios wrote. The study was conducted November 18-22 with 850 students nationwide from two-year and four-year schools, and the margin of error is +/- 3.4 percentage points.
In contrast, only 31 percent of Republicans said they would refuse to date someone from the opposite party, and just five percent said they would not be friends with a Democrat. Seven percent of Republicans said they could not work for someone from the opposite party.
Apart from politics, women are less likely than men to date someone with a differing viewpoint, 41 percent to 67 percent. Women are also less likely than men to work for a boss who voted for a different candidate, 76 percent to 86 percent. Men are more likely than women to support businesses that have differing viewpoints, 84 percent to 68 percent. ...
Think about that for a minute ... 71% of Democrats would not go on a date with someone who held opposing political views; only 31% for Republicans. 37% of Democrats would not even be friends with a Republican, while only 5% of Republicans would not befriend a Democrat. WOW! Democrats = racist AND intolerant.
