New research from Public Agenda shows voters are primed for further engagement in civic life, whether they voted for Barack Obama or not. Many observers have worried that the nation's troubled balloting system would turn voters off from participation, in or out of the voting booth, but our new Voter Experience Survey suggests otherwise.

Vast majorities said they had a positive experience at the polls. Public concerns about the system persist, but they're not driven by personal experience. This unique study was done with support from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.
