Nearly a third (30%) of voters under 35 think some of their views might shock friends and family. Just 7% of senior citizens say the same.
Only 19% of voters say all their close friends and family members know their important political beliefs. Another 31% say most do. However, 50% say no more than half of their friends and family know their politics.
Survey results released earlier showed that few voters consider political affiliations to be an important part of their identity.[2] ([link removed]) Still, the latest survey found that 20% have lost a friendship due to political differences.
