Today, the chances of both major US presidential candidates are assessed equally within the limits of statistical error.
More than half of Americans who plan to vote for incumbent President Joe Biden in November will do so for protest reasons. These results of a CBS/YouGov sociological study were published by The Guardian on Monday, June 10.
Thus, 54% of Biden’s electorate admitted that they simply do not want Donald Trump to be the head of state. Only 27% (up from 31% in March) think Biden is actually the best candidate. And 19% motivate their choice by party preferences – they always go for the Democrats.
As for the Republican camp, 55% of its supporters do not consider the status of a convicted felon as an important factor in their choice. And 14% overall say they would definitely support Trump because he received a court verdict. 8 out of 10 respondents are still convinced that the charges against the politician were brought not by the prosecutor’s office, but by the Biden administration.
In general, there is now parity in the national polls: the chances of both major candidates are assessed equally within the margin of statistical error.
Earlier, a poll showed that a third of Americans disapprove of Trump’s verdict. So, 50% of Americans agree with the verdict, 30% disagree with it, and 19% are undecided.
We remind you that on May 30, a jury found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 counts. They are all linked to monthly payments to Michael Cohen – a Trump aide – who brokered a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
