The March 2020 Daily Kos/Civiqs Coronavirus Poll asked 1,505 adults in the United States about the coronavirus pandemic, the government’s response, and how the outbreak has affected their health, work, and daily life.
After initially being dismissive, Republicans are starting to move closer to Democrats’ level of concern about the coronavirus. Both say they are growing more concerned about an outbreak in their local areas, according to a daily tracking poll by Civiqs.
Civiqs' tracking poll reveals a partisan divide in responses to the coronavirus epidemic and Americans' opinions on how the government is handling it. Republicans are much more likely to be satisfied with the government's response and much less likely to be concerned about the coronavirus spreading.
There is a partisan split in responses to the coronavirus epidemic. In a new Civiqs/Daily Kos poll, only 23 percent of Republicans, compared with 46 percent of Democrats, said they were “taking precautions” or had “changed some of my day-to-day habits” to deal with the virus.
The March 2020 Daily Kos/Civiqs Poll asked 1,441 registered voters in the United States about the coronavirus pandemic, the 2020 presidential election, employer-paid family and medical leave, and more.
