Roughly a third of eligible voters in the United States will be “considering crypto policy positions” when choosing candidates in the 2022 midterm elections, according to a new survey.
In the results of a 2,029-person survey conducted by The Harris Poll between Oct. 6 and 11, 57% of likely midterm voters say they would be more likely to vote for a political candidate interested in staying informed about cryptocurrencies, while 38% said they would consider positions on crypto policy when voting in the midterms. The survey, initiated by Grayscale Investments, also suggests that crypto regulation is a bipartisan issue, with 87% of Democratic and 76% of Republican respondents saying they want clarity from the U.S. government.
“Voters and lawmakers alike have been hearing about crypto, and it seems they’ve taken the opportunity to learn about the asset class,” says the Grayscale summary. “Despite political divisions, the survey found broad familiarity with crypto across party lines and a majority of both Republicans and Democrats who agree that crypto represents the future of finance.”
“This survey reinforces that #crypto continues to generate diverse, mainstream investor interest and engagement,” said Grayscale CEO @Sonnenshein. Compare your answers with the results here: https://t.co/SLus4nfopk
