Inflation Is a Bigger Issue Than Abortion

Cook Political Report: “While abortion remains a strong issue for Democrats, President Biden’s advantage on the issue isn’t strong enough to offset Trump’s overall strength on bringing down the cost of living.”

“That is one of the big takeaways from the Swing State Project — a collaboration between the Cook Political Report, GS Strategy Group, a Democratic polling firm, and BSG, a Republican polling firm. The project surveyed 3,969 voters in seven battleground states from May 6th to May 13th, 2024.”

“In the seven states combined, Trump leads Biden in a head to head match-up 47% to 44%. In a five-way ballot test that includes Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Green Party candidate Jill Stein, and independent Cornel West, Trump opened a larger lead — 43% to 38% for Biden and 8% for Kennedy, Jr.”
