Former President Donald Trump’s conviction just might have been the missing key in his securing the 2024 election against President Joe Biden.
According to a new Quinnipiac University Georgia poll, Trump holds an advantage over Biden (49 - 44 percent) in a head-to-head matchup in the crucial battleground state.
Despite the unprecedented move, the conviction against Trump seems to working in his favor— a stark contrast from what the Democratic Party was hoping for when bringing politically motivated charges against him.
The survey also revealed that in a six-way hypothetical race that includes other candidates, Trump still leads with 43 percent of the support, while Biden has only 37 percent. Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. got eight percent of the support, while Independent candidate Cornel West received three percent.
“Trump takes a narrow lead in the head-to-head horse race against Biden. Put four other 'horses' on the track, including the new Libertarian candidate, and he inches further ahead,” Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy said.
The poll asked respondents if Trump’s conviction has any influence on who they will vote for in November. Among Republicans, only 10 percent agree with the verdict while 86 percent disagree.
However, among Democrats, 96 percent agree with the verdict, while one percent disagree. 52 percent of Independents agree with the verdict, while 42 percent disagree.
It is important to note that Biden won Georgia in 2020.
Respondents were asked if Trump’s guilty verdict changed the way they view the 45th president. Twenty-three percent of voters said that it makes them more likely to vote for Trump in November, while 54 percent said it doesn’t impact their choice of candidates.
Among Independents, only 18 percent of responses said it makes them less likely to vote for him.
“In a key state that went for Biden in 2020, half of voters agree with the guilty verdict that made Trump the first president to be convicted of a felony, but Trump still has the advantage in the 2024 race,” Malloy continued.
Respondents were also asked who they would rather handle major issues that the U.S. is facing, Trump or Biden, on matters such as the Ukraine war, the Israel-Hamas war, and immigration. All of which indicated that they trust Trump more on the issues.
Have you ever met a really stupid person and found out later they were a liberal? me either, being stupid is a pre-req to being a liberal,You just know the person is going to do something stupid sooner rather than later.
For the RATs, would the conviction be correctly called a Pyrrhic victory? They “won” the conviction as they were desperate to do, but it caused them to lose voters. I hope they’re happy. (Not.)
“did’t they realize that Donald Trump was responsible for making New York great?”
I ask myself the same question. How many people who hate Trump in NYC are working in jobs he created, either directly or tangentially?
“I remember when an elections analyst on one of the networks changed the party colors on the election board. “
It was Tim Russert.
Well, the people in the Bronx appear to appreciate him.
And that’s cool.
His excursion into the Bronx reveals Trump should be a favorite son
“His excursion into the Bronx reveals Trump should be a favorite son”
Yep. I’ll bet that “little” rally knocked the socks off of Biden and company. And it was mentioned several times that the attendees were actual Bronx and NY residents, not bused-in plants.
Will Zuckerberg come to Biden’s rescue again? We shall find out in the days ahead. He spent over $300m on Democrat GOTV in 2020, maybe more than both parties combined. His current net worth is said to be $170b. He could spend $1b on Democrat GOTV and not even touch his principal.
Zuckerberg arguably bought the election for Biden. The vast majority of voters are already registered. In 2020, Biden won Arizona by 10K votes. In 2016, Trump won it by 90K. That’s a 100K swing. Zuckerberg spent $5m in AZ. That’s $50 per Democrat voter registered. Whether simple registrations or ballot harvesting, all Zuckerberg’s paid staff had to do was hang out in Democrat areas. If more than 1 new voter was registered per hour and they were paid by the voter, his operatives may have had effective hourly rates in excess of $100. Regardless of what anyone might think of Zuckerberg personally，the guy was the most effective political donor in 2020, and perhaps in any presidential election, ever, far outstripping Soros.
