A striking partisan divide characterizes public perceptions of police in  the United States, with Republicans expressing far greater confidence  in law enforcement than Democrats. Nearly nine out of ten Democrats  support major changes in policing, while only 14% of Republicans do. And  nearly eight of ten Democrats – versus just 5% of Republicans – favor  reducing police department budgets and shifting the money to social  programs.  When asked about racism in policing, around two-thirds of Americans say  they believe police treat black people less fairly than white people, a  view held by 91% of black adults. Still, in communities characterized by  poverty and a lack of opportunity, surveys show that black residents  are somewhat more likely than whites to express support for more police  presence in their neighborhood, rather than less.
