President Joe Biden, candidate for reelection for the Democratic Party, and his Republican rival and predecessor, Donald Trump, are almost at the same time in voting intentions in the United States.
Recent polls show that the race for the presidency in 2024 remains extremely close and that, despite Trump’s conviction in the criminal trial in New York where he was convicted of 34 serious crimes, it will not change the vote of a large number of his supporters.
After months in which the opinion polls gave an advantage to Trump, a trend is now observed in which the current president advanced to stand shoulder to shoulder with his opponent in key states and at the national level, with minimal differences that, for analysts, fall within the margins of error.
However, many comment that the upcoming elections continue to revolve around the magnate, since a majority of voters interviewed by networks such as CBS News point out that “the main reason” for their support for Biden is to prevent Trump from returning to the White House.
The anti-Trump vote is implicitly admitted by the Democrat’s own campaign when in its messages it insists on the dangers that the Republican’s return to the residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue would represent for the country.
But Trump’s electoral base does state that their main motivation for supporting him is because they like him as president. Even 80 percent of those surveyed believe that the criminal trial in New York where he was found guilty is nothing more than political persecution by the government. of Biden.
In fact, about half of that figure estimates that the former president would have to “get revenge” if he reached the Oval Office again.
On November 5, voters in the United States will decide who will direct their destinies starting in January 2025 in the coming quadrennium.
But since they will be general elections, they will also determine the members of Congress (the entire House of Representatives and a third of the Senate), as well as other authorities from governors to local officials.
