With less than a year to go before the 2024 election, voters still trust Republicans more on the key issue of taxes, although the margin has narrowed.
That’s according to Rasmussen Reports.
The survey finds that 45% of say they trust Republicans more to handle taxes, while 40% say they trust Democrats more and 15% say they are not sure.
In July, the GOP was more trusted than Democrats by a seven-point margin, 48% to 41%.
Eighty-one percent (81%) of voters say they believe the issue of taxes will be important in the 2024 presidential election, including 41% who say they think the tax issue will be “very important.” Only 17% say they don’t think taxes will be important in next year’s election.
The Republican advantage on taxes is mainly due to its 15-point edge among independents. Eighty-four percent (84%) of Republican voters and 80% of Democrats say they trust their own party more to handle taxes.
Among voters not affiliated with either major party, 44% say they trust Republicans more and 29% say they trust Democrats more on the tax issue, while 27% say they are not sure.
