Three-quarters of U.S. voters are concerned about the possibility of violence on and after Election Day, according to a new poll.

Seventy-five percent of respondents were either “very concerned” or “somewhat concerned” about the possibility of violence on Election Day and afterward, according to the poll (pdf) conducted by USA Today/Suffolk University. Meanwhile, only 11 percent of respondents say they aren’t at all concerned about the possibility of violence.
