Pennsylvanians have the most trust in local election results, poll shows

HARRISBURG — Pennsylvania voters are more likely to trust local election results over presidential ones, with overall confidence in the integrity of voting systems split along partisan lines, a new Spotlight PA poll shows.

Voting experts were encouraged by the poll’s finding that voter confidence is strongest at the county level, which is where elections are actually run in Pennsylvania.

The poll asked likely voters three questions about their confidence that 2024 election results at the national, statewide, and county levels would be “counted fairly and accurately.”

Sixty-three percent of respondents were very or somewhat confident that votes for president will be counted fairly and accurately nationally, while 64% said the same about statewide elections in Pennsylvania. Confidence jumped to 78% when those polled were asked about their own county’s results.
