Links in posts 1 and 23 of this thread do just that. It is 31%, actually, with about 50% believing in an inspired Bible, and 20% believing the Bible is just written by people.
But you don’t have to be a literalist to be a Creationist - you only have to believe in the literal Genesis.
31%? Does believing in a literal interpretation of the Bible imply that one has actually read the entire thing?
Any idea of what percentage of Americans have read the entire Bible?
Not necessarily. I believe that the overwhelming majority of the words in the Encyclopedia Britannica are literally true, but I’ve read very few of them.
Not even that. The word “Creationist” means different things to different people—although, admittedly, the most commonly understood meaning(s) involve getting one’s beliefs about how the world came to be from the first chapter or two of Genesis.
I remember a few years ago, somebody started an “Ask the Creationist” thread in Great Debates, but as it turned out, the OP didn’t adhere to a literal reading of Genesis (six 24-hour days and all).
Yes, it would be clearer if the author knew how to use a semicolon.
Glad to. As soon as possible.

For years now I’ve been trying to have PEI swapped for Idaho. Even with all the crazies in the woods, a paddle down the Lochsa in May followed by an evening in a hot spring in a cedar forest (not safe for work) beats the heck out of Anne of Green Gables.
