Americans are divided on ‘culture war’ issues, a new CNN poll finds. Republicans are trying to leverage that in the midterms
The poll found 6-point growth since last summer in Americans saying society has gone too far, while Democrats say it has not gone far enough.
- A new CNN poll shows Americans are sharply divided on cultural acceptance, with just shy of half feeling society has gone too far while a little over half reject that characterization.
- Over the past year, Republicans and independents have grown more likely to say that society's level of acceptance has gone too far, driving the overall share of the public who takes that view up 6 points from last summer.
- Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents hold a different view in the CNN poll, saying 60% to 18% that rather than going too far in its acceptance, society hasn't gone far enough.
- Republican candidates are bombarding voters with ads about fighting the "woke" left, targeting Democratic opponents with past statements on social issues, including campaigns against James Talarico.
- At the heart of the debate over "wokeness" is a period of time beginning around 2019, though polling this year shows economic issues remain at the top of most Americans' minds.
