Poll: Americans more worried about restrictive voting laws than election fraud

By the numbers: 72% of Republicans in the survey supported the goal of ensuring that no one who votes is ineligible to do so, while 85% of Democrats and 52% independents supported making it easier to vote.

• There was broad agreement that people must show a government-issued ID in order to vote, with 94% of Republicans, 83% of independents and 57% of Democrats agreeing with that requirement.

50% of those surveyed approved of President Biden's job so far, though his approval is severely partisan.

• He had a 89% approval rating among Democrats and 48% among independents, but only 11% of Republicans agreed with his performance.

The big picture: The Supreme Court on Thursday supported voting restriction laws passed by the GOP-controlled Arizona State Legislature in a 6-3 ruling.

• That ruling may make it more difficult for the Department of Justice to successfully challenge controversial new voting laws in other states, Axios' Stef W. Kight reports.
• Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' expansive voting rights bill through a legislative filibuster last week.

Methodology: This poll surveyed 1,115 U.S. adults using live telephone interviewers from June 22-29. The full sample has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points, with larger margins of error for smaller group subsets.
