The upcoming days will conclude a tumultuous presidential race, the intense competition between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris (with Joe Biden as a previous contender) has produced a wealth of data that reveals insights into U.S. public opinion and voter perceptions regarding various topics, such as the economy, foreign policy, and the candidates’ personalities.

Below are seven charts that illustrate key aspects of the 2024 presidential election.

Inflation

Inflation and high living costs are major issues for voters. Even though inflation rates have dropped since the pandemic, many still blame Democrats for the rising prices. Trump’s campaign connects Harris to Biden’s economic policies, referred to as “Bidenomics.” Recent polls show voters are nearly evenly split on which candidate they trust more with economic issues.

Candidacy, interrupted

After Biden’s poor debate performance, he withdrew from the race, and Harris took his place as the Democratic candidate. This change significantly affected the election dynamics, bringing her polling numbers closer to Trump.

Immigration

Immigration remains a contentious topic, with many Americans trusting Trump more to handle it. He has promised aggressive measures to deport undocumented migrants, while Harris has faced criticism for the current state of border crossings.

Trump’s indictments

Trump has faced multiple criminal charges, including being the first former president convicted of a felony. He claims these charges are part of a political “witch hunt” against him, but they have helped his fundraising efforts.

Abortion

Protecting access to abortion is a key part of Harris’s campaign, while Trump has boasted about his role in overturning the landmark Roe v. Wade decision. Public support for abortion rights has increased over the years.

Foreign Policy 

Trump promotes an “America first” policy, advocating for new tariffs and questioning U.S. support for NATO. In contrast, Harris emphasizes strong support for Ukraine and maintaining relations with U.S. allies.

Money

This election is set to be the most expensive ever, with combined fundraising reaching nearly $4 billion. Harris’s campaign has seen significant support from individual donors, while Trump’s funding relies heavily on wealthy individuals.

Overall, the race is highly competitive and marked by various social and economic issues that are central to voters’ concerns.
