New @BrightLineWatch survey brightlinewatch.org/courts-campaig… Rs are confident that their own votes (79%) and votes in their state (77%) will be counted as intended in 2024. However, just 54% of Rs are confident in the national vote count in 2024. Democrats are much more confident. (8/9)

New @BrightLineWatch survey brightlinewatch.org/courts-campaig… Democrats and Republicans are polarized over disqualification from ballot and over Trump claim to criminal immunity. Overall support for immunity is lower. Experts regard immunity as a serious threat to democracy. (2/9)

Read the thread and the full report for this essential work from THE scholars studying the health and viability of US government. Mostly discouraging news, with a few bright elements of hope. Amazing work @BrightLineWatch!

New @BrightLineWatch on state of US democracy. brightlinewatch.org/tempered-expec… - Partisan divisions over the legitimacy of the 2020 election remain profound. Confidence in the 2022 elections is already more polarized than confidence in the 2020 election was in October of that year.
