According to a new Rasmussen Reports survey, fewer U.S voters than ever now believe that the United States is safer than it was before 9/11 terrorist attacks, Xinhua news agency reports.
The survey released early this week finds that six in ten likely voters say the country is not safer now, up by seven points compared with the last survey in November 2015.
The survey also says that only 26 percent of likely US voters now believe that the United States is safer than it was before the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001. This is the lowest level of confidence in the Reports’ tracking since November 2006.
The survey came at a time when the country was still reeling from the deadliest Orlando Shooting massacre.
Forty-nine people were killed and 53 others wounded, including a police officer on June 12 in the shooting at the Orlando night club. It was the worst mass shooting in US history and the deadliest terror attack since the 9/11 terror attacks in 2001.
