Live Poster Session: Zoom Link
Abstract: According to a Pew Research Study done in September of 2020, only about 20% of the American population has confidence that the American government will “do the right thing” just about always or most of the time. With Joe Biden’s approval rate sitting around 53% after his first 100 days, lower than his fellow former president Barack Obama, one has to wonder, why are there such low ratings of confidence in facets and members of the American Government? This study explores the relationship that race and/or political party may have on confidence in each of the three branches.
