A Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Tuesday (February 13) shows the US presidential candidates are technically tied
The research he conducted Reuters/ Ipsos, which was released on Tuesday (February 13, 2024), shows that the former President of the United States Donald Trump He received 37% of voting intentions. Joe BidenWho is expected to seek re-election in 2024, by 34%.
Although Trump has a numerical lead over the current North American president, both candidates are technically tied within the poll's margin of error, which is 2.9 percentage points.
The survey interviewed 1,237 North American adults for 4 days across the country online through Monday (February 12). The result represents a small margin for the electoral dispute scheduled for November 5th.
10% of respondents said they would vote for other candidates, while 12% said they would not vote. Voting is not mandatory in the United States. Of those interviewed in the survey, 8% preferred not to respond. The sum is greater than 100% due to rounding.
according to Reuters, One potential problem Trump could face in the election is the ongoing criminal proceedings against him, with 1 in 4 Republicans interviewed and about half of those who identified themselves as independents saying they would not vote for the former president if he is convicted of a serious crime.
The former president's nomination has not yet been formalized by the Republican Party. Trump objects to caucuses with Nikki Haley. She was the United States Ambassador to United nations (United Nations) during the Trump administration (from 2017 to 2018) and Governor of South Carolina (from 2011 to 2017).
Likewise, Biden has not been declared an official candidate for the Democratic Party, although the trend is towards running for re-election.
