Survey

A poll of 804 self-identified Democrats suggested a majority favored some of the core values surrounding digital assets, as well as the US leading the world on innovation.

According to a poll sponsored by venture capital firm Paradigm, United States Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris has an opportunity to make “inroads with crypto owners” during her campaign.

In a poll conducted with Mercury Analytics among 804 self-identified Democratic registered voters after US President Joe Biden said he would not be running for reelection, data suggested that Vice President Harris could increase her chances of winning in November by appealing to crypto-focused voters. Of the Democrats surveyed, 27% said they were “somewhat likely” or “very likely” to purchase crypto in the next year.

According to the poll, roughly 13% of Democrats said they were undecided or intended to vote for Republican nominee Donald Trump or a third-party candidate like Robert F.
