HUFFPOLLSTER: Social Media Users Are Sick Of Arguing About The Election

Most Americans are (understandably) ready to see this campaign end. Most voters are (less understandably) worried about voter fraud. And most forecasters think Hillary Clinton will win, but they differ in levels of certainty. This is HuffPollster for Wednesday, October 26, 2016.

AMERICANS ARE OVER THE ELECTION - HuffPollster: “No matter whom they support at the polls, Americans can mostly agree on one thing about this presidential campaign ― they’re really, really ready to be finished with it. An 81 percent majority of Americans say they wish this election were over, according to a new HuffPost/YouGov poll, with just 12 percent saying they’re enjoying watching things play out. More than three-quarters of people in both parties say they’re ready to move on….Just because people are tired of hearing about the campaign, though, doesn’t mean they aren’t worried about the outcome. An overwhelming majority, 78 percent, say that depending on who wins the presidential election, the U.S. could be in serious trouble. Just 8 percent think that the nation will be fine no matter who wins….Women are 15 points likelier than men ― 41 percent to 26 percent ― to say they’ve found this election ‘very stressful.’ Just 9 percent of women, compared to 16 percent of men, say they’re enjoying the election.” [HuffPost]
