Voting followed the partisan divide, but 97% of Democrats say they would vote for Democratic candidates, more than the 89% of Republicans who say they would vote for Republican candidates.
Democrats also lead 52% to 41% among voters who follow what’s going on in government and public affairs most of the time, and they have a 5 percentage point lead among voters who only follow the news some of the time.
Republicans have a short 2-point lead among those who say they only rarely keep up to date with the country’s affairs.
YouGov points out that significant shares of Republican-leaning registered voters say they wouldn’t vote or aren’t sure how they would vote, especially among those who don’t closely follow the news, while the vast majority of Democratic-leaning registered voters say they would vote for Democratic candidates.
