A new poll shared with The Guardian found that, when placed anonymously next to each other, voters prefer the economic policies of Democratic candidate for president Kamala Harris over those of Republican candidate Donald Trump.
From The Guardian:
Four of the top five most popular proposals were from the Democratic candidate’s campaign.
…
Americans surveyed were given a list of 12 policy proposals – six from Harris’s campaign and six from Trump’s. The poll did not say whose campaign the proposals came from.
The most popular proposals were as follows:
- A federal ban on price-gouging food and groceries (Harris).
- Eliminating taxes on Social Security (Trump).
- Expanding the child tax credit for middle- and low-income families (Harris).
- Creating larger tax breaks for new small businesses (Harris).
- Increasing the tax rate on capital gains for those who earn more than a million dollars (Harris).
The polling suggests that Harris campaigning on these items would help her to court more voters ahead of the last full month before Election Day.
