thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4610911-trump-urges-supporters-peacefully-protest-hush-money-trial-opening-remarks/

Quick Glance: Poll: Election Interest Declines in Tight Biden-Trump Race
- The interest of voters in the election has reached the lowest point in two decades at this stage in a presidential race.
- The latest national NBC News poll reveals that the number of voters with high interest in the 2024 presidential election has nearly hit the lowest point in almost 20 years, with a majority holding negative views of President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.
- Inflation and immigration top the list of the country's most pressing issues, with only one-third of voters giving Biden credit for improving economic performance.
- The survey also highlights how the low voter interest and the independent candidacy of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could potentially disrupt what has been a stable presidential contest with over six months until Election Day.
