The results of a new poll in Georgia have upended the Democratic Party’s insistence that reelecting former President Donald Trump would equal “a
danger to Democracy.”

In the CBS News/YouGov poll of registered voters in the state, taken between September 20-24, more respondents agreed that a Trump victory would mean
making the “U.S. Democracy” stronger compared to a Vice President Kamala
Harris win.

In the poll of 1,441 registered Georgia voters — taken after the Trump-Harris presidential debate — respondents were asked, “If Harris wins, do you think
her policies would make U.S. democracy…stronger or weaker?” Forty-two percent said stronger while another 45% thought it would make it weaker.

They were also asked, “If Trump wins, do you think his policies in a 2nd term would make U.S. democracy…stronger or weaker?” In response, 45% of voters
said that it will make the U.S. stronger compared to 42% who felt it would
make the country weaker.

The poll also found “among likely voters, including those leaning toward
Harris or Trump,” that “if the 2024 presidential election were being held
today between Harris and Trump” 51% would vote for Trump, compared to 49% who said they would pick the VP.

The voters were chosen “according to gender, age, race, and education based
on the U.S. Census American Community Survey, and the U.S. Census Current Population Survey, as well as 2020 Presidential vote,” the CBS Poll noted.
The definition of “likely voters” was determined “using a regression model
that incorporates current, self-reported intentions to vote, along with individual-level and aggregate data about voters, such as demographics and
vote history.”

The results of the Georgia poll were similar to other polling this week, specifically that of Gallup, which for the first time in decades found more voters identifying with the Republicans than Democrats, as previously
reported.

In an average of Gallup polls taken between July and September, 48% of voters surveyed either identified as Republicans or leaned Republican, while 45% of voters identified as Democrats or leaned Democrat. 46% of voters thought that the GOP was better able to handle the most important problem facing the country, as opposed to 41% who chose the Democrats. Gallup listed the issues that voters thought were most important as the economy and immigration.

50% of voters deemed the GOP better equipped to keep America prosperous,
while 46% thought the Democrats would do the job better. A whopping
difference came between the 54% of voters who thought the GOP was better able to keep America safe from international threats versus the 40% who chose the Democrats.
