Georgia Voters Split On Top Issues And Trust In Leaders

Voters cast their ballots in South Carolina republican presidential primary

Initial results of an exit poll conducted among Georgia voters shed light on the key issues that were top of mind for voters in the state. Approximately 4 in 10 Georgia voters identified the economy as their primary concern, highlighting the significance of economic matters in the state.

Interestingly, less than 3 in 10 Georgia voters cited the state of democracy as their top issue, a notable contrast to the national trend where democracy takes precedence. About 14% of Georgia voters expressed that abortion was their main concern, while approximately 10% mentioned immigration, and fewer than 5% indicated foreign policy as their top issue.

When it comes to federal hurricane aid distribution, Georgia voters appear divided, with slightly under half believing that the aid is reaching those in need, while the other half expressing skepticism. Moreover, nearly 6 in 10 voters in Georgia expressed disapproval of President Joe Biden, aligning closely with his nationwide ratings.
