## Reading

Verasight surveyed 1,000 U.S. adults from September 25 to 30, 2026. Asked to choose, 65.7% of Americans say a revolution in America is more likely today than at any time in the past 100 years, and 34.3% say less likely.

The question offered only two answers, more likely or less likely, so it does not capture people who see no change. It measures expectations, not a prediction of unrest.
