Why are voters worried about democracy? | 538 Politics Podcast

In the latest polling from The New York Times/Siena College, 14% of voters said the economic and political system needs to be torn down entirely, while 55% said it needs major changes.
Concerns about democracy are central to the 2024 election. Late last year, Gallup recorded a record low number of Americans who said they are satisfied with the way democracy is working.
To better understand how Americans are thinking about democracy heading into the election, 538 teamed up with PerryUndem, a nonpartisan research firm, to conduct focus groups with voters. In this installment of the 538 Politics podcast, we hear from those voters. We also speak with Gretchen Helmke of Bright Line Watch, which conducts regular polling of experts and Americans on the potential threats to democracy.

this is so annoying, please upload the full podcasts

[@chemicalfrankie1030]

Some genius social media strategist told them that’s the way to get ‘viral clips’ lol so dumb

[@rsaunders57]

This isn't a podcast, it's just an AD for a podcast. I'd live to see the podcast, here on CZcams, but it seems the new 538 masters aren't going to give us that.

[@DarkFlareGC]

Any chance you'll upload the full thing to youtube at some point? I don't really want another app / location to keep track of.

[@scottcardwell932]

I don't do Spotify you guys are going downhill

[@hunteyvonne]

These short clips suck. Please bring back full length podcasts.

[@chemicalfrankie1030]

Bring back the full podcast - I already stop watching

[@WhiskersInc]

Please upload the full podcast to this channel as you did for a long time and garnered a sizable following. Perhaps if it ain't broke, don't break it??

[@thehanghoul]

You can easily upload clips of these for shorts, and then upload the whole podcast on CZcams. Just a thought.

[@scarlet1958uk]

Please upload the full podcast to YT. I am so disappointed with you all

[@tylerhackner9731]

Rightfully concerned

[@christianburgos2736]

We are concerned about OUR republic... that's why we are going to the RIGHT side.

[@Clefargle]

Why are you surprised that trump voters believe in conspiracy theories and false information? That’s the least surprising thing ever

[@VoiceofRationale]

I don't believe in Democrat conspiracies either, including those touting Presidents as dictators.
Why don't you just come out and say you are not educated on how the three branches of Government function because clearly anyone calling Trump a dictator forgot that CONGRESS MAKES THE *** LAW *** READDDDD!!

[@tomhenderson2430]

Prefer CZcams. No thanks on the qr code

[@jwass2721]

so my question is to all you podcasters and focus groups.... why don't you tell these people who believe in conspiracys that they are believing lies and bring the receipts. It seems to me that could be a huge change to getting people out of their brainwashed stated and voting for the side that is for ALL the people.

[@DandelionScribe]

You don't care about your audience

[@BennyRuff]

Find me "democracy" in the Constitution. I'll wait.

[@TRE45ON.is.Bat5hit.Crazy.U.S.G]

Trump is losing 20% of the Republican primary vote to a candidate who suspended their campaign weeks ago.

[@nuqwestr]

No impact on November, even William Barr and Chris Sununu say they will vote Trump.
