In New Hampshire, voters are considering the potential impact of former President Donald Trump's legal troubles as they prepare to cast their votes in the upcoming Republican primary. A recent poll conducted in Iowa raised two important questions for voters: Is Donald Trump fit for the presidency if convicted of a crime, and do they believe Joe Biden legitimately won the 2020 election?
According to the poll, 65% of Republicans in Iowa believe that Trump is still fit for the presidency, even if he were to be convicted of a crime. This sentiment was echoed by a voter in New Hampshire who stated that they still believe Trump is fit to be president, despite the possibility of a conviction.
However, not all voters share this viewpoint. Another individual in New Hampshire expressed the opinion that if Trump is convicted of a crime, he should not be allowed to hold the highest office in the country. This voter has not yet decided who they will vote for in the primary but did mention a liking for Trump.
When asked about the legitimacy of Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 election, the majority of the Iowa caucus-goers as well as the voters in New Hampshire agreed that Biden won legitimately. Some voters expressed a belief that Trump's claims of election fraud were unsubstantiated and not supported by evidence.
However, there were also individuals who maintained doubts about the legitimacy of Biden's victory. A supporter of Trump in New Hampshire mentioned 'finagling' and allegations of stolen ballots without providing specific evidence. Despite the lack of widespread proof of election fraud, this voter firmly believed in their assertion.
It is uncertain how Trump's legal situation will ultimately affect his popularity among voters. Some individuals indicated that even if he were to face guilty verdicts and potential prison time, they would still vote for him. Others suggested that they expect him to continue making statements without evidence and that such behavior does not bother them.
Overall, the opinions among voters in New Hampshire regarding Trump's fitness for the presidency and the legitimacy of Biden's victory appear to be divided. As the Republican primary approaches, each voter will have to weigh these considerations and make their own decision at the ballot box.
