Americans will be asked representatively about their reasons for voting during the 2020 US election.
The coronavirus plays a subordinate role.
The focus is on another topic.
US election 2020
*
: which issues were
decisive
for the
Americans
?
Exit polls
reveal some surprising focal points when casting votes.
The
corona policy
of
Donald Trump
*
and addressing the
coronavirus
* -Crisis
was less important for them.
According to the
US election polls
*
by
CNN
,
one topic was
decisive in the voting.
Munich / Washington -
Joe Biden
*
from the
Democratic Party
*
or
Donald Trump
*
from the
Republicans
*
?
Exit polls for the 2020 US election: economy, climate protection or health policy - what was decisive?
The
2020 US election
*
was primarily, but not only, about the presidential candidates of the respective party.
But also about the issues, the so-called policy fields.
For example the
economy
,
climate protection
or social policy.
The news
channel CNN
asked
Americans
immediately after leaving the polling stations about their motives for voting.
So it was about which topics were decisive for you when you ticked the box.
And which priorities played a rather subordinate role for them.
Exit polls in the 2020 US election: These topics were crucial for the Americans when they voted
1st priority for U.S. voters
: the
economy
(about 33 percent)
2nd priority for US voters
:
ethnic equality
/ rapprochement between white and black Americans (about 20 percent)
3rd priority for US voters
:
Corona policy
(around 20 percent)
4th priority for U.S. voters
:
crime and security
(about 10 percent)
5th priority for US voters
:
health policy
(about 10 percent)
2020 US election: Economy was the most important issue for Americans when they voted
In first place of the priorities in the
US election 2020
*
was the
economy
with just under a third, i.e. around 33 percent.
The way in which the
coronavirus pandemic
was
dealt with
was therefore only
decisive
for just under 20 percent of the
voters
.
Health policy was the focus of their decision for around ten percent of voters.
Striking: According to
CNN
, around 50 percent of those surveyed were
satisfied
with the previous
Corona policy
, and 50 percent were also
not satisfied
with Trump's crisis management in
Corona times
.
