What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls - Week Ending June 15, 2024
In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:
- President Biden ended the polling week with a daily job approval of 45%.
- Two-thirds of voters are worried that cheating could affect this year’s election, and many of them still don’t trust electronic voting machines.
- While some have touted Nikki Haley as a potential Republican vice presidential candidate, most voters say adding the former United Nations Ambassador to the ticket wouldn’t make a difference.
- As a Delaware jury weighs Hunter Biden’s fate, nearly half of voters think President Joe Biden’s son is guilty, but fewer expect the jury to convict him.
- While President Joe Biden campaigns for another four years in the White House, a majority of voters perceive him as losing his mental sharpness.
- In a swing state that Joe Biden won four years ago, former President Donald Trump leads by seven points in Arizona, while the most likely Senate matchup is neck-and-neck.
- Father’s Day is Sunday and most Americans still believe dads play an important role.
- Many businesses actively promote June as LGBTQ Pride Month, but a plurality of Americans believe there’s too much celebration.
- Years of transgender activism have still not convinced most Americans that there are more than two genders, and a majority don’t want teachers going behind parents’ backs on the subject.
- Thirty-three percent (33%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
