Conservatives are more likely to vote than liberals in the upcoming midterm elections, according to a new poll released by The Pew Research Center.

Seventy-three percent of respondents who said they are “consistently conservative,” and 52 percent of those who are “mostly conservative” reported that they are likely to vote in the election.

Meanwhile, 58 percent of respondents who are “consistently liberal” and 32 percent of those who are “mostly liberal” reported that they are likely to vote.

Twenty-five percent of those with “equal mix of conservative and liberal attitudes” reported that they were likely to vote.

Pew estimates that those who identify as “consistently conservative” or “consistently liberal” make up about 22 percent of the general public, and that that 40 percent of eligible voters will vote in the upcoming election.

Pew found that likely voters are more politically polarized than the general public. According to Pew, “the most ideologically-oriented Americans are also the most politically active.”

The survey was conducted online and by mail from Sept. 9 through Oct. 3 with 3,154 randomly selected U.S. adults. The findings are the latest in Pew’s series of reports regarding political polarization.
