#gallop poll

More Americans now affiliate themselves with the Democratic Party than the Republican Party, marking the first time this has happened since January 2024, according to a Gallup poll released Thursday.

Fun paranormal Gallop poll just came out— more Americans accept the existence of ghosts than witches.

But what if you are a witchy ghost? 👻

Marijuana use hits record high in new Gallup poll

Marijuana use reached a record high in new polling, as for the first time more Americans said they smoke marijuana than reported smoking cigarettes in the last week. Sixteen percent of Americans in a new Gallup poll reported smoking marijuana, up from 12 percent last year and more than double the all-time low of 7 percent. Fewer Americans, at 11 percent, reported smoking cigarettes in the past…

Well, duh! People feel safer in their homes if they’re armed and prepared for action if they are invaded. Who doesn’t feel safer being equipped for a fight? Who doesn’t have a baseball bat or pepper spray lying around? Why not a gun? Obviously people should get some training to feel properly safe, and have the gun ready and accessible but not someplace kids can get hold of them. The latest poll from Gallop is very interesting.

Bang! For the first time, a growing — and already substantial — majority of Americans now believe having a gun in the home makes it a safer place to live.

Put that in your chamber and cock it.

Gallup, which has been surveying the politically volatile question for a generation, announced this morning a new poll revealing that nearly two-out-of-three Americans (63%) now say having a firearm there makes a home safer.

That’s nearly twice the number who said that just before 9/11.

And the explosion of support has come across all political boundaries. Back in the fall of 2000, barely a third thought that (35%), while a majority (51%) said guns made homes more dangerous.

But the number who say guns increase home safety has been steadily increasing while the number who see them as increasing danger has been steadily declining — from 35% in 2000 to 42% four years later to 47% in 2006 and now a jump all the way up to 63%.

In the same time periods, the number who see guns as boosting home danger steadily dropped from 51% to 46% to 43% and now only 30%.
