SHOCK POLL: 60% say TWO-PARTY system is NOT WORKING

 

On today's What America's Thinking , a new Hill-HarrisX poll finds 60 percent of registered voters believe there needs to be a more viable third party to have an effective political system while 40 percent say the current two-party system is working. Lee Drutman, senior fellow in the Political Reform program at New America and Author of Breaking the Two-Party Doom Loop: The Case for Multiparty Democracy in America, joins Hill TV to discuss. This survey was conducted online within the United States from September 10 - 14 among 3,758 registered voters by HarrisX. The sampling margin of error of this poll is plus or minus 1.60 percentage points. The results reflect a nationally representative sample of registered voters. Results were weighted for age within gender, region, race/ethnicity, income, political party, and education where necessary to align them with their actual proportions in the population.
