Gun Carrying on the Rise

 7/27/26 Crime Research Prevention Center:

The CPRC hired McLaughlin & Associates to survey 1,000 general election voters on July 22nd, 2026 (cross tabs available here), regarding whether likely voters carry concealed handguns. In the survey, 15.7% carry all/most of the time, with another 15.2% carrying sometimes/rarely. The percent who carry all or most the time increased from 13.0% in December 2024 to 13.2% in May 2026 to 15.7% in July 2026. But total percent who care increased from 24.3% in December 2024 to 29.8% in May 2026 to 30.9% in July 2026. So the total who are carrying increased by 5.5 percentage points (from 24.3% to 29.8%).

This has effects, like cutting short a mass murder at an In-and-Out Burger in Twin Falls
