An increasing majority of Americans lack confidence that elections in America today reflected the will of the people, and about half think it likely that a future election in the United States will be overturned for partisan reasons, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS.

Almost three-quarters of Republicans were now skeptical that elections are representative , as were 59% of independents, and only a third of Democrats . The results reflected a significant decline in confidence over the past year among both independents and Democrats .
