What’s the story?

Nearly 80 percent of voters say they’re concerned the negative tone and lack of civility coming out of Washington will lead to violence or acts of terrorism.
But the NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll, conducted in the wake of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, found that voters are split on who’s to blame.

What are the numbers?

92 percent of Democrats and 70 percent of Republicans are concerned or very concerned that the negative tone in D.C. will result in violence.
71 percent of Democrats and 45 percent of Independents think President Donald Trump is to blame.
86 percent of Republicans blame either Congress (44 percent) or the media (42 percent).

What do you think?

Are you worried that political incivility could cause further violence? Do you believe Congress, the media, or the president are to blame? Take action and tell your reps, then share your thoughts below.
