A new national poll by Quinnipiac University reveals widespread dissatisfaction with the functioning of the U.S. government's system of checks and balances, with a majority of voters expressing concerns about its effectiveness.

According to a recent Quinnipiac University poll, a significant majority of American voters, about 67%, believe that the U.S. system of checks and balances is failing. This sentiment spans across party lines, with 79% of Democrats, 67% of independents, and 54% of Republicans expressing this view. The poll highlights a growing concern over the functionality of the government's separation of powers, which is intended to prevent any one branch from gaining too much control. Additionally, the survey found that 64% of voters feel that the country is heading in the wrong direction, reflecting widespread dissatisfaction with the current political climate. This comes at a time when issues like the debt ceiling, government spending, and the potential impeachment of President Joe Biden are prominent in political discourse.
