Results: Americans plan to skip 4th of July celebrations, experts cite political divides

If you chose not to celebrate the Fourth of July this year, you weren’t alone. A survey done last week by YouGov found 26% of the more than 4,000 Americans polled had planned to skip the holiday altogether. Another 16% were unsure if they would participate in celebrations. The question did not ask why people would or would not celebrate Independence Day. However, more Republican respondents said they would celebrate while more Democrats and Independents said they would not. “America is pretty divided right now. In some ways, it’s kind of at a historical peak,” University of Denver political science expert Seth Masket said.
