I agree with all of this. I don't think Biden is good on these issues at all. I think Trump is too much of a wild card to know either way. I will go with Biden. |
In a separate survey conducted between January 26–27, 2024, 27% of voters identified “the economy, jobs, and inflation” as their top priority when deciding their vote. |
Only swing state voters matter at this point, as we all know. |
Yeah, it's not my top issue either. I don't want to vote on it at all, ever. But after Dobbs, it is the only issue. And it has been the deciding issue in every election since Dobbs. No one wants to vote for abortion. But here we are. |
What? Who doesn’t want to vote for abortion? |
Donald Trump is leading President Biden in six of the seven most competitive states in the 2024 election, propelled by broad voter dissatisfaction with the national economy and deep doubts about Biden’s capabilities and job performance, a new Wall Street Journal poll finds. |
I am one of them. |
The poll shows Trump leading Biden in Arizona by five points, Georgia by one point, Michigan by three points, North Carolina by six points, Nevada by four points and Pennsylvania by three points when voters were asked to choose between the two candidates. Biden and Trump both tied for Wisconsin.
On a test ballot with four other Independent and third-party candidates, Trump held a similar lead to Biden in the six states. In Wisconsin, however, Biden leads Trump by three points, according to the poll. |
Oh no, what are the Democrats to do?! (I imagine just massively overperform these polls yet again...) |
WASHINGTON, April 3 (Reuters) - Republican Donald Trump leads President Joe Biden in six battleground states in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, according to a Wall Street Journal poll released on Wednesday that cited concerns about the economy and Biden's performance.
Trump garnered a lead of between 2 and 8 percentage points among voters in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and North Carolina on a ballot that included third-party and independent candidates, the Journal said. The results were similar in a one-on-one matchup with Biden, it said. |
Yes, surveys conducted by Trump’s favorite pollster for Rupert Murdoch with surveys from weeks ago. |
Trump’s lead in six of the seven competitive states varies, from 6 percentage points ahead in North Carolina to just 1 percentage point in Georgia, among surveyed respondents asked whom they’d support in a matchup between the two. Biden is tied with Trump in Wisconsin with 46 percent support each. |
The survey also asked about both Biden’s and Trump’s approval in office. On average, respondents held a more favorable view of Trump’s time in office, with 51 percent saying they approved of the job he did, compared to 38 percent for Biden. |
Former President Trump leads President Biden in six of seven of the closest swing states, according to a Wall Street Journal poll published Wednesday.
Leaning on dissatisfaction with the economy and swirling questions over Biden’s age, Trump has a multipoint lead in each battleground except for Wisconsin, where Biden leads by 3 points in a three-way race with independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr., per the survey. |
