Nearly 9-in-10 Trump and Biden supporters said that a lot or some of their friends supported the same candidate as they did. But it is true that many Americans actually don’t know anyone who supports a political candidate they oppose. Seven-in-10 supporters of both Trump and Hillary Clinton said that a lot of their friends voted for the same candidate. Three-in-10 Clinton voters and a quarter of Trump voters said they knew no one who’d supported the other candidate. It was more common in states Trump won, where an average of 32 percent of voters lived in precincts Trump won by at least 50 points.
