The final year of President Trump’s first term in office has been incredibly challenging, with George Floyd calling for him to respond to the global coronavirus epidemic and national demonstrations following the death of police custody. As such, the poll covers a number of topics, including approval ratings for Trump’s handling of the current crisis and the electoral preferences between Trump and Joe Biden.

Most notably, the poll indicated that 46 percent of voters believe the current state of the economy is “poor” and that 59 percent of voters are more concerned with police actions than with “violent protests” following Floyd’s death. – Only 27 percent of voters care.

The NBC News / WSJ poll surveyed 1,000 registered voters with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.
