Nearly two-thirds of Americans ages 18-29 say they are fearful about the future of democracy in America, according to a poll released Wednesday.

A Harvard Institute of Politics poll found that 64 percent of young, voting-age Americans are more fearful about the future of democracy in the country than they are hopeful.

The poll also asked respondents who they believe is to blame for existing problems in America. Both Democrats and Republicans strongly blamed politicians, but other responses were split along partisan lines.

Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper (D) made headlines last week when he told Politico that America's current political divide "is as significant as when we had slave states and anti-slavery states.”

The comments spurred pushback from some Republicans, including Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel, who called them "ridiculous."
