Saw an article from CNN about probability of people complying with another stay-at-home lockdown:

"The results show a political divide in those willing to stay home. About 40% of Republicans polled said they were willing to comply with a stay-at-home order, down from 74% in the spring.
By contrast, 87% of Democrats said they would likely comply, a slight drop from 91% in March and April."

The Republican number makes sense, as a lot of rural and small town red counties don't take COVID seriously and refuse to mask up or social distance. They are paying the price for that right now as hospitalizations are at capacity or over in a lot of rural areas. I'm guessing the 40% comes from suburban republicans or the wealthy.

The Democratic number confuses me though. Do they not poll anyone from the inner cities? I live in a major city, and I can tell you the urban community, which is highly Democratic, do not practice social distancing at all and mask wearing only if necessary. I understand this can be more of a poverty issue or what have you. Regardless of the reasoning, this a huge block of the democratic base and I don't understand how this poll came up with such high numbers unless they purposely didn't poll those people.
