7,023 | no_data-19232 | Support for Watchdog Role Persists. Support Views of Press Accuracy Decline | multiColumn/imgs/7023.png | Nonetheless, most Americans continue to support the so-called “watchdog role” for the press. In fact, the percentage of Americans saying that press criticism of political leaders keeps them “from doing things that should not be done” is nearly as high now — at 62% — as it was in Pew Research’s first poll in 1985 (67%) when views of the news media were far less negative than they are today.
In 15 surveys since that initial poll, majorities have said that press criticism of political leaders keeps them from doing things that should not be done. Support for the press’s watchdog role has continued even as positive views of press performance have plummeted. In Pew Research’s most recent survey of press attitudes, released Sept. 13, just 29% said that news organizations get the facts straight; in 1985, nearly double that percentage (55%) said news stories were accurate. | https://www.pewresearch.org/2009/10/02/strong-support-for-watchdog-role-despite-public-criticism-of-news-media/ | multiColumn/data/7023.txt | line | complex | Journalism & Media | multiColumn/bboxes/7023.json | Support for Watchdog Role Persists. | Support Views of Press Accuracy Decline | 80 | 60 | 55 | 40 | 20 | 1985 1989 I 993 1997 2001 2005 2009 | Press criticism prevents political wrongdoing | Press get facts straight |

About as many Hispanics support the current system for deciding immigration cases as do those expediting the process (49% – 47%), which would have the effect of speeding up deportations.
The split among Hispanics is in contrast to views of the overall public, which backs a faster process over the current policy by 53% to 39%.
Like the general public, Hispanics — a diverse group that includes people with roots in more than 20 countries — give the president low marks on his handling of the surge of children. Some 46% of Hispanics disapprove and 34% approve of the president’s handling of the issue, while Americans overall disapprove of the president’s performance by a 56% to 28% margin.

Overall, 56% say that reducing the budget deficit should be a top priority for the president and Congress in 2016, down from 64% who said this last year. The emphasis given to the budget deficit peaked in 2013, the first year of Obama’s second term, when 72% called it a top priority. At that time, the deficit ranked behind only improving the job situation and the economy on the public’s to-do list. Today, reducing the budget deficit ranks ninth in priority out of 18 policy areas tested in the survey.
The latest national survey by Pew Research Center, conducted Jan. 7-14 among 2,009 adults, finds that strengthening the nation’s economy and defending the country from future terrorist attacks rank atop the public’s priority list: 75% each say these should be top priorities for the country.

About half of undocumented adults live with their own children under 18. Nearly half of unauthorized immigrant households (47%) consist of a couple with children. That is a greater share than for households of U.S.-born residents (21%) or legal immigrants (35%). This difference stems in large part from the relatively youthful composition of the unauthorized immigrant population.
Most children of unauthorized immigrants—73% in 2008—are U.S. citizens by birth. The number of U.S.-born children in mixed-status families (unauthorized immigrant parents and citizen children) has expanded rapidly in recent years, to 4 million in 2008 from 2.7 million in 2003.

1,142 | no_data-2376 | In EU pessimism countries, higher well-paying unemployment is related to more pessimism about well-paying jobs in the future % who are generally pessimistic about the future availability of well-paying jobs in their country | multiColumn/imgs/1142.png | Against this backdrop, a new Pew Research Center analysis finds that people in EU nations with higher unemployment rates tend to voice more pessimism about future job prospects in their country. The analysis also finds that youth unemployment rates, as well as changes in a country’s gross domestic product, are linked to economic attitudes in EU member states.
Across 14 EU nations surveyed by the Center this year, a median of 54% of adults say they are pessimistic about the future availability of well-paying jobs in their country, ranging from just 28% who say this in Sweden to 76% in Spain and 80% in Greece.
These attitudes are connected with current economic conditions. The unemployment rate in Greece sat at 19.3% in 2018 – the highest in the EU, though down from its peak of 27.5% in 2013 – while Spain had a rate of 15.3% in 2018. By comparison, the unemployment rate was much lower in Sweden (6.3%) than in Greece and Spain, perhaps explaining why Swedes are less pessimistic about the future availability of well-paying jobs in their country.
This pattern is not uniformly the case, however. People in France and the UK stand out for being much less optimistic than their counterparts in nations with similar youth unemployment rates. French and British adults, in fact, are about as pessimistic about the financial future of the next generation as people in Italy, Spain and Greece – even though France and the UK have youth unemployment rates that are roughly 10 to 20 percentage points lower. | https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/12/11/how-unemployment-rates-relate-to-economic-attitudes-in-the-eu/ | multiColumn/data/1142.txt | scatter | complex | Economy & Work | multiColumn/bboxes/1142.json | In EU pessimism countries, higher well-paying unemployment is related to | more pessimism about well-paying jobs in the future | % who are generally pessimistic about the future availability of well-paying | jobs in their country | 100% | Greece | Spain | France | Italy | Bulgaria | UK | Hungary | Slovakia | Lithuania | Germany | Poland | Czech Rep. | Netherlands | Sweden | Correlation = +0. 788 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 2018 unemployment rate (%) | Source: Spring 2019 Global Attitudes Survey.

The recent relative stability in the estimated size of the U.S. unauthorized immigrant population is a contrast to previous periods. The number of unauthorized immigrants in the U.S. rose through the 1990s and early 2000s, peaking at 12.2 million in 2007.

Roughly three-in-ten U.S. adults (27%) say they would be not at all or not too comfortable sharing the names of people with whom they might have been in physical contact. A similar share (22%) say the same about their lack of comfort sharing information on places they have recently visited. Half of U.S. adults say they would be not at all or not too comfortable sharing location data from their cellphone.
Republicans are about twice as likely as Democrats to say that they would be not at all or not too comfortable sharing the names of people with whom they might have been in physical contact (37% vs. 18%) and places they’ve recently visited (30% vs. 14%). They are also more likely to express discomfort about sharing location data from their cellphone (60% vs. 42%).
Younger adults express less comfort sharing information than older adults. For instance, 32% of those ages 18 to 29 say they would be not at all or not too comfortable sharing the names of people they might have been in physical contact with, compared with 21% of those ages 65 and older who say this. And those with lower incomes and less formal education tend to be less comfortable sharing information.

The percent rating economic conditions as poor has declined nine points since October (from 33%). This marks the first time in Obama’s presidency that about as many have described the economy as excellent or good (27%) as poor (24%). Democrats are almost three times as likely to rate the economy as excellent or good than Republicans. About two-thirds (66%) of Americans say the economy is recovering, but not strongly, compared with just 16% who regard the recovery as strong. Expectations for the economy have improved somewhat with 31% saying it will be better a year from now compared with 27% last October.
Nearly four-in-ten (38%) say Obama’s economic policies since taking office have made economic conditions better, while 28% say they have made the economy worse, according to our Jan. 7-11 survey. Three-in-ten (30%) think they have not had much of an effect. On balance, this is the most positive rating of Obama’s economic impact since December 2009. The survey also found that more Americans have more confidence in Obama than Republican leaders to do the right thing on the economy: 49% have a great deal or fair amount of confidence in Obama compared with 37% who say they have more confidence in GOP leaders. | https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/01/20/us-economy/ | multiColumn/data/4866.txt | line | complex | U.S. Politics & Policy | multiColumn/bboxes/4866.json | Improving Economic Ratings | Economic conditions in country today are (% | Excellent/Good | Only fair | Poor | 48 | 45 | 28 | 27 | 26 | 24 | 08 | 09 | 10 | 11 12 13 14 | 15 | Survey conducted Jan. 7-11,2015. | PEW RESEARCH CENTER |

Pew Research Center survey data going back more than two decades shows a growing gender gap in partisan affiliation. In 2018 and 2019, the Democratic Party held a wide advantage with women: 56% of female registered voters identified as Democrats or leaned toward the Democratic Party, while 38% identified as Republicans or leaned toward the GOP. This stands in contrast to men, among whom 50% were Republicans or GOP leaners and 42% identified as or leaned Democratic. This gender gap has been slowly growing wider since 2014.
Party affiliation, like voter turnout, differs significantly by race and ethnicity.

810 | no_data-11598 | Voter Midterm Turnout Drops in Midterm Elections Votes cast in House elections as eligible a percentage of estimated eligible voters | imgs/810.png | For all of the money spent on this year’s midterm elections — $3.67 billion, according to the Center for Responsive Politics — less than half of eligible voters will actually cast ballots in the nation’s 435 House districts, if history is any guide.
Political scientists (and practical politicians) long have recognized that voter turnout surges in presidential election years and falls off in midterm elections. In the 2008 presidential election, for example, nearly 59% of estimated eligible voters voted in that year’s House elections. Two years later for the midterms, only about 41% of eligible voters went to the polls. (We estimated eligible voters in each district from 2006 through 2012 using data from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, and obtained vote totals for every House race from the House Clerk’s office. Our analysis excluded a handful of races in which unopposed candidates weren’t listed on the ballot.)
You might think there’d be some relationship between how competitive a given election is and turnout. A race where victory could go either way might spur more interest and rev up get-out-the-vote efforts from both sides; a race where one candidate is a prohibitive favorite could lead many people to conclude there’s no point in heading out to vote. But our analysis shows little, if any, correlation between a House election’s competitiveness (measured by the winner’s victory margin) and turnout.
In the Tea Party year of 2010, for example, overall turnout in House races was 40.7% of estimated eligible voters. That year, the nation’s highest turnout was in Wisconsin’s 5th District, where 62.4% of estimated eligible voters cast ballots and Rep. F. James Sensenbrenner cruised to a 42-percentage-point victory. The nation’s tightest race in 2010 was in Illinois’ 8th District, where Republican Joe Walsh edged Democrat Melissa Bean by just 290 votes; 41.7% of estimated eligible voters cast ballots in that contest. (The lowest turnout rate in 2010, 19.5%, came in Texas’ 16th District, which Democrat Silvestre Reyes won by a comfortable 21.5 percentage points.) | https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2014/11/04/no-matter-how-tight-the-race-midterm-voter-turnout-likely-to-remain-lackluster/ | data/810.txt | bar | simple | U.S. Politics & Policy | bboxes/810.json | Voter Midterm Turnout Drops in | Midterm Elections | Votes cast in House elections | as eligible a percentage of estimated | eligible voters | 80% | 60 | 40 | 20 | 'O6 | '08 | '10 | '12 | Note: Analysis excludes races where | unopposed candid ate was not listed on | ba llot and runoff elections | Source: American Community Survey, | House Clerk's office | PEW RESEARCH CENTER |

Asked to look ahead a few years, fewer than half say things would get even a little better on six different issues – ranging from the economy to foreign policy – under either a Clinton or Trump administration.
In general, higher percentages say all six issues will get at least a little better in coming years under Trump than Clinton. However, on five of the six issues, comparable percentages feel that things would get worse under Trump as under Clinton.
And far more voters say foreign policy would get worse under a Trump presidency (49%) than under a Clinton administration (34%).
Across the six issues, more voters expect say things would not change much under Clinton than under Trump. Roughly a third of voters say that on issues ranging from security from terrorism (36%) to the budget deficit (31%), things will not be much different in the years ahead than they are today. In assessing a possible Trump presidency, smaller percentages – no more than about one-in-five –expect little change on any issue. | https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2016/07/14/voters-perceptions-of-the-candidates-traits-ideology-and-impact-on-issues/ | multiColumn/data/3787.txt | bar | complex | U.S. Politics & Policy | multiColumn/bboxes/3787.json | What if they won?

About a third of U.S. adults (32%) say they often see made-up political news online, while 39% sometimes see such stories and 26% hardly ever or never do. About half (51%) say they often see political news online that is at least somewhat inaccurate – a higher proportion than those who say they see news that is almost completely made up (32%). About a quarter (23%) say they have ever shared made-up news stories themselves, with roughly equal shares saying they have done so either knowingly or unknowingly. A large majority (84%) of Americans say they are at least somewhat confident in their ability to recognize fabricated news.
Americans have low trust in information from social media. Just 5% of web-using U.S. adults have a lot of trust in the information they get from social media, nearly identical to the 4% who said so in 2016. This level of trust is much lower than trust in national and local news organizations, and in information coming from friends and family.

If you look simply at the total percentage of online adults who say they trust a news organization for news about government and politics, several mainstream television outlets rise to the top. CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox News are all trusted by more than four-in-ten web-using U.S. adults. These high numbers, though, are intertwined with the fact that more than nine-in-ten respondents have heard of these five news sources. Trust and distrust were only asked of sources respondents had heard of, thus, the better known a source is, the more Americans in total who can voice trust or distrust of that source. A source like The Economist, on the other hand, is known by just 34% of respondents and so could never have a trust level exceeding 34% — even if everyone who had heard of it trusted it. | https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2014/10/30/which-news-organization-is-the-most-trusted-the-answer-is-complicated/ | data/813.txt | bar | simple | Journalism & Media | bboxes/813.json | News Sources Trusted By Largest | Percentage of Online Adults Largest | % who have | Percent of total respondents | who trust | heard ofit | CNN | 54% | 95% | ABC | 50 | 94 | NBC | 50 | 94 | CBS | 46 | 93 | Fox | 44 | 93 | News | American Trends Panel (wave 1).

About three-in-ten (29%) name reports about the fast-spreading flu and its vaccine as the story they followed more closely than any other last week, according to the latest weekly News Interest Index survey, conducted October 30-November 2 among 1,001 adults by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. Somewhat fewer mention news about health care reform (22%) or the economy (17%) as their top story.
A separate analysis by the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism (PEJ) finds that the national news media devoted 5% of the newshole to swine flu, much less than the coverage given to the health care debate (16%), Afghanistan (13%) or the economy (12%). | https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2009/11/05/swine-flu-interest-outpaces-coverage/ | multiColumn/data/7003.txt | bar | complex | U.S. Politics & Policy | multiColumn/bboxes/7003.json | News Interest vs. News Coverage | Swine flu 29 | 22 | 16 | Health care | 12 | Economy 17 | Afghanistan 10 | 13 | World Series | 3 | Pakistan | Interest: percent who named story as most closely followed | Coverage: percent of news coverage devoted to story |

4,946 | no_data-11386 | Improving Views of News About Jobs % hearing news about the job situation | multiColumn/imgs/4946.png | For the first time in at least five years, as many Americans say they are hearing good news (26%) as bad news (25%) about the nation’s job situation; a 45% plurality reports hearing a mix of good and bad news.
This is the first time that more than 20% have expressed positive views about job news since the Pew Research Center began tracking this question in 2009. In June of that year, just 1% said news about the job situation was mostly good, and 71% said it was mostly bad. In the last year alone, the share hearing mostly bad news about jobs has fallen 15 points, while the percentage hearing mostly good news has risen nine points.
When it comes to news about the overall economy, most continue to say that they’re hearing a mix of good and bad news (63%), while 21% say they are hearing mostly bad news and 14% are hearing mostly good news. The gap between positive and negative perceptions has narrowed considerably since a year ago, when 31% were hearing bad news and 7% were hearing good news. | https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2014/12/16/perceptions-of-job-news-trend-upward/ | multiColumn/data/4946.txt | line | complex | U.S. Politics & Policy | multiColumn/bboxes/4946.json | Improving Views of News About Jobs | % hearing | news about the job situation | Mostly bad | Mixed | Mostly good | 100 | 80 | 60 | 45 | 40 | 26 | 25 | 20 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | Survey conducted Dec 11-14 2014 | PEW RESEARCH CENTER |

In contrast, roughly three-quarters of those low in religious commitment (73%) say gene editing to reduce a baby’s risk of developing a serious disease or condition is an appropriate use of medical technology. And, while a 57% majority of those high in religious commitment say gene editing to treat a congenital disorder in a baby is an appropriate use of medical technology, a much larger share of those with low religious commitment (82%) say this is appropriate. | https://www.pewresearch.org/science/2018/07/26/public-views-of-gene-editing-for-babies-depend-on-how-it-would-be-used/ | multiColumn/data/2191.txt | bar | complex | Science & Society | multiColumn/bboxes/2191.json | Highly religious Americans are more likely to see gene | editing for babies as taking medical technology too far | % of U.S. adults characteristics in each religious commitmentgroup who say changing a | baby'sgenetic characteristics for commitmentgroup eachof the.following reasons is | Taking med lica technology too far Approp riate use of medical techno logy | Treata serious disease or cond lition the baby would have at birth | Among those | on the religious commitment index | 40 | High | Medium | 27 | 72 | Low | 18 | 82 | Reduce risk of a serious disease or condition that could occur over their | lifetime | CONTERTATION | High | 53 | Medium | 41 | 58 | Low | 27 | 73 | Make the baby more intelligent | High 93 | Medium | 82 | 18 | Low | 72 | 28 | Note: Respondents who did notgive an answerare notshown.
