Poll shows Biden’s large expenditures have not influenced as many voters as desired

According to new polling data from Politico-Morning Consult, President Joe Biden’s major spending bills are not resonating with voters as he gears up for a potential second term in office. The survey shows that Biden’s legislative achievements, including the American Rescue Plan, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, CHIPS and Science Act, and Inflation Reduction Act, are not being viewed favorably by the public. Only 26%-29% of voters believe these laws have positively impacted their communities.

Specifically, the CHIPS and Science Act received mixed reviews, with 24% of respondents stating that it had no impact on their community and 19% saying it had both positive and negative effects. For the other three bills, roughly 22%-26% of voters felt that they had both positive and negative impacts on their communities.

When it comes to federal spending on infrastructure, opinions are split among voters. While 30% believe there has been no impact on their community, 26% think there has been a major impact and another 26% believe there has been a minor impact. Additionally, voters are divided on who has done more for infrastructure improvements, with 40% crediting Biden, 37% crediting former President Donald Trump, and 12% believing they have both contributed equally.

Another concerning finding for Biden is that a majority of voters are pessimistic about the country’s current economic conditions compared to four years ago. 61% believe the economy is somewhat or much worse off now, while only 34% think it is somewhat or much better. In polling data from swing states and RealClearPolitics’ national average, Trump has a lead over Biden, marking a reversal from the figures seen four years ago.
