Deciding issues among Americans regarding who to vote for in the 2024 presidential election in the United States by party ideology

How much attention Americans are paying to the presidential election campaigns in the United States in October 2024, by age

Another important detail to consider is the voting intention by age group. Taking into account that in the United States, the majority of the population is between 20 and 50 years old, and that according to Statista data they are those who pay less attention to the campaigns of the presidential candidates, we will see which candidate they opt for.

Nevada is one of the most difficult states to predict; analysts refer to it as a purple state, as it is neither Republican red nor Democratic blue.

In the states of Arizona and Georgia, the difference is almost 2 points, which would make it difficult for the Democrats to win. Special attention to Georgia, with 16 electoral votes, which is considered one of the key states to be President of the United States.

In 2020, Joe Biden won Nevada by a margin of 2.39%, or about 34,000 votes, a similar margin to that of Hillary Clinton over Trump in 2016.

The economy is key. Nevada has one of the highest unemployment rates in the country, with most of the population dependent on tourism and the service industry. Economic proposals that best appeal to voters could sway the outcome.
 

Nevada polls for the US Election 2024: Trump vs Harris

In 2020, Joe Biden won Nevada with 50.1% of the vote, while Donald Trump received 47.7%. Nevada has remained a crucial battleground state for Democrats in recent cycles, and Biden’s win continued this trend, largely due to strong support from unions and Latino voters in the Las Vegas area. With Nevada’s importance in the electoral map, recent polling shows Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in a near tie for 2024, with Harris polling at 46.5% and Trump close behind at 47.2%.
