According to the Fars News Agency International Group, the “Yoga / Economist” poll shows that more than a third of Americans believe that domestic terrorism and right-wing militias are an immediate and serious threat to the United States, and most Americans believe that they are a somewhat serious threat.

According to the poll, 65% of Americans believe that domestic terrorism is an immediate and serious threat or a somewhat serious threat to the United States. Only 8% of respondents said they did not consider it a threat.

According to Sputnik, the results of the poll showed that Americans are less concerned about right-wing militias than domestic terrorism.

Of those who voted for Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election, 65 percent said right-wing militias were a serious and immediate threat to the United States, and 60 percent said they believed in domestic terrorism.

Those who voted for former President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election and those who are Republican are far less concerned about right-wing militias than domestic terrorism. Forty-three percent of Trump voters did not see right-wing militias as a threat to the United States, but only 17 percent believed in domestic terrorism.

According to the Yoga / Economist poll, women, Democrats, and college graduates see domestic terrorism and right-wing militias as a serious threat to the United States. In contrast, those who considered themselves conservatives were much more likely to see domestic terrorism and right-wing militias as no threat to the United States.

The poll was conducted between January 15 and 18 (January 25-28) with the participation of 1,500 Americans and a margin of error of 2.8%.
