The following is from Rasmussen Reports.

Nearly three-quarters of likely US voters say the possibility that voting systems could be vulnerable to hacking is a serious problem.

That’s according to a new Rasmussen Reports survey.

Seventy-three percent (73%) say the potential vulnerability to hacking is at least a somewhat serious problem, including 47% who say it is very serious. Twenty-three percent (23%) say it is not a serious problem.

The concern crosses party lines. Eighty-five percent (85%) of Republicans, 66% of Democrats and 68% of voters not affiliated with either major party say the potential vulnerability is at least somewhat serious.

The survey comes after Dept. of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin wrote in a memo to the White House that voting machine manufacturers have acknowledged using Chinese parts in critical infrastructure and warned that the systems may be vulnerable to hacking.

Eighty-three percent (83%) of likely voters say preventing election cheating in the upcoming November elections is important, including 64% who say it is very important. Fifteen percent (15%) say preventing election cheating is not important.

Majorities across party lines say preventing election cheating is very important: 73% of Republicans, 61% of Democrats and 58% of unaffiliated voters.

Thirty-four percent (34%) say they have a lot of trust in electronic voting systems currently used in the US, and 29% say they have some trust. Twenty-two percent (22%) say they do not have very much trust, while 12% say they have no trust at all.

The survey of 1,105 likely US voters was conducted Aug. 31-Sept. 2, 2026. The margin of sampling error is +/- 2 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work was conducted by Pulse Opinion Research LLC.
