NOVEMBER 11, 2020: Thirteen percent (13%) of registered voters discuss politics with family and friends every day or nearly every day. A _PoliticalIQ_ national survey found that twice as many—27%—rarely or never discuss the topic.[1] ([link removed])

Overall, 37% discuss politics on most days, 20% about once a week, and 41% less than once a week.[1] ([link removed])

The survey, conducted by Scott Rasmussen, found that there was little difference between Trump ([link removed]) and Biden ([link removed]) voters when it comes to discussing politics. Forty-three percent (43%) of Trump supporters talk politics more than once a week. So do 42% of Biden voters. Those who voted for some other candidate or chose not to vote are less interested in talking politics.[1] ([link removed])

Other data from the survey shows that 85% of Trump voters said their friends and neighbors knew how they voted. Eighty-five percent (85%) of Biden supporters said the same.[1] ([link removed])

Among those whose family and friends did not know how they would vote, 48% said the reason is that voting is a private matter. Another 25% said it's because they rarely discuss politics, and 11% because they decided at the last minute. However, 8% said they kept their voting decision from family and friends because they were afraid of how others might react.[1] ([link removed])

Fear of how others might react was more common among Trump supporters than Biden voters. It's not a huge gap but could suggest that shy Trump voters accounted for understating the president's support by about a single percentage point.[1] ([link removed])

Biden supporters were far more likely than Trump voters to say they kept it secret because they rarely discuss politics.[1] ([link removed])
