Both the Republican candidate and his Democratic opponent have experienced a decline in support compared to the 2020 election, as highlighted by survey results.
US voters reportedly view both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris less favorably than they perceived the Republican and Democratic candidates in the 2020 presidential election, according to exit polls by Edison Research.
As reported by Reuters, Trump’s approval rating currently stands at 45% nationwide, one percentage point lower than four years ago. Harris was viewed favorably by some 47% of respondents, compared to Joe Biden’s 52% in 2020.
Simultaneously, 51% of voters across the US expressed more trust in Trump to handle the economy, while 47% believed that Harris would perform better in that area. However, regarding abortion, 51% stated they were more comfortable with Harris compared to 47% who supported Trump on the issue.
The Edison Research exit poll also indicated that approximately seven out of ten Americans were “dissatisfied or angry” about the current state of affairs in the country, with 45% reporting they were worse off financially than four years ago.
According to the survey, the primary concerns for voters in the 2024 election included the “state of democracy,” the economy, as well as topics like abortion, immigration, and foreign policy.
The exit poll also suggested that a significant majority of voters, around 80% of respondents, had already made their voting decisions by September, with only a small percentage of independent, first-time, or “infrequent” voters indicating they would wait until Election Day to decide.
