#AmericasBarometer
Interesting AmericasBarometer result from @johnsides.bsky.social in this week's @goodauth.bsky.social newsletter. Strong public willingness to trade features of democracy (free elections, free expression) for material and physical security, with some party differences.

Support for democracy across Latin America rose to 65 percent this year, the highest level since 2014, according to the AmericasBarometer poll.

The number alone says little about whether democracy will survive, columnist James Bosworth writes.
Popular Support for Democracy in Latin America Doesn’t Ensure Its Survival
Popular support for democracy is strong across the region, but experts highlight a troubling trend: “illiberal majoritarianism.”
