The most important use of polling is to help us understand what voters are trying to tell us. The data from Election 2024 points to three clear objectives that voters expect from the incoming Trump Administration.
- Make the economy work for all Americans: Heading into the election, just 25% of voters thought the economy was getting better while 41% said worse. Voters in swing states were even more pessimistic.
- Secure the southern border: This has been Donald Trump's signature issue since he rode down that escalator nine years ago. It's become even more important to voters as the impact of Biden's open border policy has been felt nationwide.
- Return to common sense around gender identity: Simply put, voters recognize that men and women are different. They want their governments and societal institutions to stop insisting that they are not.
