Welcome to the Number of the Day

December 28, 2020

As 2021 approaches, 58% of voters nationwide are looking forward to the end of social distancing and wearing masks more than getting the COVID-19 vaccination. A PoliticalIQ survey found that 33% are more excited about the vaccine.[1]

Republicans, by a 69% to 25% margin, are most looking forward to the end of social distancing and masks. The numbers for independent voters are similar. By a 58% to 28% margin, they are most excited about the end of social distancing.[1]

Democrats, however, are more evenly divided: 48% are most looking forward to the end of social distancing, while 45% are looking forward to getting vaccinated.[1]

Senior citizens are evenly divided on the question as well. However, younger voters are looking forward most to the end of social distancing.[1]
