Most Minnesotans have faith in U.S. to meet terrorist threat, poll finds

A majority of Minnesotans say they are confident in the U.S. government’s ability to destroy terrorist networks around the world and protect the nation from an attack at home.

A Star Tribune Minnesota Poll found that 60 percent of respondents said they were very or somewhat confident in the government’s ability to eradicate terrorist groups around the world. More than one-third, or 37 percent, of Minnesotans said they had no confidence, or had little confidence, in the U.S. government’s ability to fight terrorism abroad.
