GVU's Seventh WWW User Survey Politic Graphs

Elected Officials Attitudes Toward People

Notes:

The responses to this question have been the same within a few percentage points since we began asking this question in the Fifth survey. Of those who had an opinion, more than half (62.0%) felt that elected officials did not care what people like them thought. Younger respondents were less likely to think that elected officials cared what they thought than older respondents.
