SEPTEMBER 17, 2019: Thirty-three percent (33%) of voters nationwide believe the U.S. Constitution ([link removed]) needs a major overhaul. A ScottRasmussen.com national survey ([link removed]) found that 37% would like to see minor changes made while 30% don’t think any changes are required.[1] ([link removed])
As on many issues these days, there is a huge generation gap. Among voters under 35, 48% believe the Constitution needs a major overhaul. Just 16% of senior citizens agree.
If changes are made, 56% want further limits placed on the federal government. Forty-four percent (44%) want changes that would make it easier for the government to get things done.
A majority of all age groups prefer changes that would place further limits on government power.
The U.S. Constitution was signed 232 years ago today in Philadelphia.
