Independents Swing Toward Trump for the First Time In Over Four Years

For the first time in four years, Independent voters swung toward former President Donald Trump, spelling massive bad news for President Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election chances.  

According to a recent NPR/ Marist poll, Independent voters suggested they would cast their ballots for Trump over Biden by a sweeping 28 points. 

In 2020, 57 percent of Independent voters supported Biden, while only 36 percent chose Trump. 

Flash forward for years, 52 percent indicate they will cast their vote for Trump in 2024, while just 45 percent support Biden. 

Biden’s approval rating among Independents also declined by 12 points, while Trump gained 16 points among the party. 

A previous poll, conducted by Messenger/Harris, also found that Independent voters are beginning to shift away from the president. 

Forty-six percent of voters suggested they would support Trump, while only 35 percent said they would vote for Trump if they were the only two candidates on the ballot. 

However, with a third-party choice on the ballot, the poll found that Trump still came out on top with 40 percent of the vote. 

Biden had 37 percent and Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had just 11 percent. 

In addition, a Wall Street Journal poll released this week found that Trump leads Biden in six of the seven top swing states, including Pennsylvania, Nevada, Michigan, North Carolina, Arizona, Wisconsin, and Georgia. 

“Overall, the poll shows substantial unhappiness with Biden among voters who will have the most influence in the outcome of the election, as expanded one-party dominance in states has left just a few as politically competitive,” the outlet noted. 

The majority of the voters cited Biden’s reckless immigration policies and disastrous economy as top concerns when deciding who to cast their ballot for. 

A March YouGov poll found that 59 percent disapproved of Biden’s border policies and 51 percent disapproved of his economy.
