Democracy and Economy Dominate 2024 Election Concerns

Early exit poll results from the US elections indicate that democracy and the economy are the top concerns for voters, with more than a third prioritizing democracy. The economy, traditionally a leading issue, remains significant but within the margin of error. The data reveals sharp partisan divides, with Harris supporters prioritizing democracy and Trump supporters focusing on the economy. Both groups express concern about the state of democracy and potential election-related violence. Confidence in the election's fairness is higher among Harris supporters, while Trump supporters are more divided.
