只有在公众相信相关人员会尊重民主选举的结果，并重视新政府在上任前就做好执政准备的必要性的情况下，总统的过渡才能有效. 美国总统权力交接中心(Center for Presidential Transition®)进行了一项具有全国代表性的调查，以了解美国人对总统权力交接习俗的看法. The survey found that 56% of Americans agreed a peaceful transition would take place if a different c和idate wins in 2024. By contrast, 44% of Americans did not think a transfer would be peaceful or were unsure. The public’s doubt should serve as both a call to action 和 an opportunity. 政府领导人和中心这样的组织必须支持公众理解和平过渡作为我们民主的一个关键功能的重要性.

The Senate created the privileged nomination process more than a decade ago, 这一程序旨在加快对大约280个通常没有争议的职位提名的确认. Despite this well-intentioned effort, nominees on the privileged calendar are worse off today than they were before the reform was adopted.
