Well to be fair other polls seem to suggest slightly larger or smaller percentages. Any for both Americans and Britons they all mostly seem to say that 50 to 60% of the countries' populations reject evolution, i.e. approximately 1 in 2 to 1 in 1.7.
where are these people

i mean i don't want to say that anecdotes count for a lot, but i have literally never met anybody with a poncy accent and bad teeth who thinks evolution is some kind of myth

that's reserved for the stupid sounding ones who worship zombies
