Poll: Voters repelled by election denial and overturning Roe -- and drawn to economic proposals

(NBC News) Voters are far less likely to back candidates who say former President Donald Trump won the 2020 election or who support the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade, and they are more likely to support a candidate who they feel is working to address high costs, according to the latest national NBC News poll.

With voters citing the economy and inflation, abortion, immigration and democracy as top issues in this election, the survey tested a series of policy proposals on those topics, offering clues about which policies could move voters. The survey did not identify which party or candidate is associated with the proposal.

The poll shows that voters across the political spectrum are more likely to vote for a candidate seeking to address high costs, with some of those policies among the most popular of the dozen tested.

Roughly 2 in 3 voters say they are more likely to back a candidate “who supports expanding domestic oil and natural gas production to lower gas and energy prices,” as well as a candidate who supports a $6,000 federal child tax credit. And 61% say they are more likely to back a candidate “who wants to help control inflation by taxing large corporations that are making record profits.”
