In the realm of public opinion, Former President Donald Trump is decisively outpacing President Joe Biden on the key issues of the economy and immigration, which hold significant importance for swing-state voters, as revealed by a recent survey conducted by Bloomberg/Morning Consult.

Particularly pronounced is the preference for Trump among respondents from Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, with double-digit margins favoring him on both fronts. Notably, Georgia stood out as the only state where immigration didn’t take center stage.

The survey underscores the salience of economic concerns among voters in these battleground states, with 36% highlighting it as their foremost priority.

Meanwhile, 13% identified immigration as the most critical issue. Trump’s lead over Biden remains substantial, commanding trust from 51% to 33% on economic matters and 52% to 30% on immigration. Impressively, this marks a 5-point surge from the mid-December iteration of the poll. Additionally, a staggering 71% of swing-state voters voiced apprehension that the economy is heading down the wrong path.

The poll delves into public perception regarding accountability for the surge in migrant crossings, with a majority (52%) placing responsibility on President Biden, as opposed to 29% who attributed it to the Trump administration. In terms of a head-to-head match-up, Trump has extended his lead over Biden in six of the seven battleground states surveyed, boasting a 48% to 42% advantage.

Significant shifts in Trump’s favor were observed in states such as Nevada and North Carolina, where his lead increased by 5 and 10 points, respectively.

Notably, the former president saw improvements in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. Despite these statistical shifts, both Trump and Biden maintain substantial leads in their respective primary fields, as indicated by RealClearPolitics averages, with Trump securing majority support in key early contests.

The poll, conducted between January 16 and January 22, surveyed 4,956 registered voters with a margin of error of plus or minus 1%. At present, neither Trump nor Biden’s campaign has issued a response to the poll results.
