58% of Registered Voters are Very Motivated to Cast a Ballot in 2022

Posted on August 30, 2021 | by Scott Rasmussen
  

Fifty-eight percent (58%) of Registered Voters feel Very Motivated to cast a ballot in next year’s midterm elections. A Scott Rasmussen national survey found that another 21% are Somewhat Motivated to participate next year.

Voters who prefer policies like those of former President Trump have a higher level of motivation than others. Seventy percent (70%) of the populist voters are Very Motivated. Among the smaller number who prefer traditional Republican politics, just 50% are that motivated.

On the other side of the aisle, 61% of those who prefer Traditional Democratic policies are Very Motivated. So are 60% of those who prefer policies like those of Senator Bernie Sanders.

Methodology

The survey of 1,200 Registered Voters was conducted by Scott Rasmussen using a mixed mode approach from August 26-29, 2021. Field work for the survey was conducted by RMG Research, Inc. Most respondents were contacted online or via text while 236 were contacted using automated phone polling techniques. Online respondents were selected from a list of Registered Voters and through a process of Random Digital Engagement. Certain quotas were applied, and the sample was lightly weighted by geography, gender, age, race, education, internet usage, and political party to reasonably reflect the nation’s population of Registered Voters. Other variables were reviewed to ensure that the final sample is representative of that population.

The margin of sampling error for the full sample is +/- 2.8 percentage points.
