Democrats are three times more likely to say the United States Constitution is “not a relevant document” than their Republican counterparts.

A new poll from Echelon Insights, conducted between July 15 and 18, found that 23% of Democratic-leaning respondents felt the document was no longer relevant, as opposed to only 6% of those who reported leaning Republican.

Overall, 77% said that the Constitution remains relevant today. Nine percent reported they are “unsure,” and 14% said the document is now irrelevant.

Eighty-six percent of voters said that the Constitution is “very” or “somewhat” important to their political beliefs. Only 3% reported that it is not important at all. Six percent said it is “not so important.”

Further, 74% believe, “The Constitution as written is a good document and should be kept basically intact,” while only 14% say it should be scrapped and replaced with something else.

Black voters and voters under 50 years old were more likely than their demographic counterparts to believe the Constitution should be replaced. Twenty-six percent of those under the age of 50 said the document should be thrown out and replaced, and 31% of black voters agreed.
