New 50-State Analysis Reveals Trump’s Favorability Above the National Average in Swing States

Despite the release of the Mueller report, the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and the historic impeachment of President Donald Trump by the U.S. House of Representatives, Donald Trump’s favorability ratings remained remarkably stable (averaging 41 percent favorable, 55 percent unfavorable throughout 2019) among both his base and detractors. However, there was more volatility among key groups who are divided over Trump, particularly white women with college degrees. While Trump’s favorability is underwater nationally, it remained notably higher in most battleground states that will likely decide the 2020 election. These are the main findings from analysis of a landmark survey of 40,357 Americans conducted throughout 2019 and released today by PRRI. CONT.
