Most voters likely don’t even follow the overall economic trends, let alone one month’s data, he said. Instead, their views on the economy are shaped by how far their dollars are stretching today compared to recent times. That track record isn’t great nowadays.

Looking at each presidency in its entirety, the overall economy expanded faster under Biden than Trump, but Biden saw inflation surge.

Gov. Glenn Youngkin's (R-VA) comments followed the release of a new federal report that inflation was hotter than expected last month.

Jobless claims have already surged after Hurricane Helene hit, and Milton will likely add to that. It suggests weak jobs data to come.

A top obstacle to Democrats in the 2024 election is that voters are unhappy with the economic stewardship of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee.

New Wall Street Journal polling of seven battleground states shows a race too close to call virtually everywhere — but with advantages for Republican Donald Trump on the election’s key issues.

Ahead of next month’s election, a new Gallup poll has found no overlap at all between Republican and Democratic voters in their top five issues.

But according to the most recent analysis of the economic plans of both candidates, Trump’s proposals would balloon the deficit by $7.5 trillion over 10 years. That same analysis found Harris’ plan would also increase the debt but by a significantly lower $3.5 trillion, less than half.

Most voters in a new survey rank the economy as the most important issue ahead of the election, now less than a month away, and former President Trump has an edge over Vice President Harris on the issue.
