On Party Voters Trust More, Nation Remains a Tossup

​

• When it comes to the party voters trust more on important issues, the nation remains a tossup — 41% choose Republicans, and 39% choose Democrats.
  • Those numbers have remained steady, with a 2-point margin for the last 3 months.
• The Economy is the number 1 issue for both parties.
  • For Republicans, issues 2 and 3 are Immigration (22%) and Inflation (18%).
  • For Democrats, the other issues are Healthcare (20%) and Inflation (17%).
• Republicans have the advantage on Immigration, 44% to 37%.
  • This 7-point edge is far smaller than when President Trump was elected, but still comfortably with the Republicans.
• In contrast, Democrats have a 13-point edge on Healthcare, 45% to 32%.
• Inflation is a tossup, with 38% trusting Republicans more, and 36% trusting Democrats more.
