Republicans Overwhelmingly more Tolerant Than Democrats

From Young Dems more likely to despise the other party by Neal Rothschild.

Nearly a quarter of college students wouldn't be friends with someone who voted for the other presidential candidate — with Democrats far more likely to dismiss people than Republicans — according to new Generation Lab/Axios polling.

Why it matters: Partisan divides — as each side inhabits parallel political, cultural and media universes —make a future of discord and distrust in the U.S. all the more likely.

By the numbers: 5% of Republicans said they wouldn't be friends with someone from the opposite party, compared to 37% of Democrats.

• 71% of Democrats wouldn't go on a date with someone with opposing views, versus 31% of Republicans.

• 30% of Democrats — and 7% of Republicans — wouldn't work for someone who voted differently from them.

The alternate headline, given the 5% and 37% numbers would be "Republicans Overwhelmingly more Tolerant Than Democrats".   Based on other data in the article it could also be headlined "Women more Dogmatic Than Men".  Neither of which headline can one imagine being actually used, no matter how accurate.
