votematch answers with headlines evidencing how we concluded their answer to each question click on the analysis link to see background and details about the question abortion is a woman s unrestricted right strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis 51 agree with biden s pro choice stance and only 36 with trumps pro life stance this issue has the fewest people answering no opinion of any votematch issue only 13 which reflects the fact that it is overwhelmingly the issue with the most voter interest as indicated by our viewership statistics consistently since 1999 since 2012 the response set has become more polarized both strong answers increased in percentage and more shifted towards support accordingly we strengthened the question text by adding the term unrestricted which reduced the number of support answers from 65 in 2012 to 51 in 2016 click for all candidates headlines on abortion or for background information legally require hiring women minorities strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis biden supports affirmative action on the basis of past discrimination trump opposes dei diversity equity and inclusion note that our question specifies requirement 50 support that and 30 oppose we added the term legally to attempt to skew more towards oppose our goal is 50 50 support oppose without the term legally 39 supported the largest shift for any question which had identical wording previously click for all candidates headlines on jobs or for background information comfortable with same sex marriage strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis joe biden has evolved over time to become comfortable with same sex marriage strong support now opposed in the 1990s donald trump has consistently supported gay rights but does not support transgender rights the strongly support bar has the highest response of any quiz question 35 strongly support that bar has grown recently indicating that america has evolved on same sex marriage along with biden we strengthened the wording to include benefits instead of just rights then we strengthened it further to include marriage instead of just benefits despite those strengthened wordings the strongly support ratio rose each election cycle click for all candidates headlines on families children or for background information keep god in the public sphere strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis 51 support agreeing with republicans 28 oppose agreeing with democrats it s difficult to decode biden s stances on religious issues because he doesn t address the issue much trump is less personally religious than biden but accepts the support of the religious right under this topic trump mostly talks about issues of political incorrectness like saying merry xmas biden instead focuses on fight epa regulatory over reach strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis this is a new question since the 2016 election cycle donald trump s desire to reduce regulations is backed up by 53 of viewers joe biden s desire to protect the environment via federal action is backed by 27 of viewers click for all candidates headlines on environment or for background information make voter registration easier strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis 50 favor and only 26 oppose voting reform this indicates a public reaction against voter suppression and gerrymandering and perhaps for campaign finance reform we refocused this question away from campaign finance reform since the citizens united supreme court decision which removed many restrictions on campaign spending viewers responses favors biden s stance for more open voting compared to trumps stance for more voter security click for all candidates headlines on voting reform or for background information stricter punishment reduces crime strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis trump supports mandatory sentencing which matches voter preference 52 to 29 opposed biden prefers prevention and rehabilitation support for mandatory sentencing the death penalty and three strikes our previous question wordings have increased over the last decade the black lives matter movement which arose in the 2016 election might be credited with slowing support for this topic click for all candidates headlines on crime or for background information absolute right to gun ownership strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis the gun control issue is second in the big issues in terms of viewer interest behind abortion all other issues are very distantly behind voters support trump on the issue 42 agree with trumps pro gun rights stance while 33 agree with biden s pro registration stance however support has been weakening in recent election cycles we previously registered 55 support to 37 oppose perhaps due to the focus on mass shootings since then this question exemplifies the yes bias people prefer answering yes to any question if we correct for that bias this question is now opposed by the majority but was not in 2012 or earlier our wording on this question has never changed since 1999 but america s view is evolving click for all candidates headlines on gun_control or for background information expand obamacare strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis this topic is a leader in lopsided support 56 in favor versus only 24 opposing slightly less favorable than 2012 and even less than in 2008 we ve changed the wording of this question from generic health coverage to obamacare for 2016 but the support ratio has remained steady accordingly trump and many republicans have been promoting various spending programs that mimic aspects of obamacare without calling it obamacare a term repugnant to trump but federal health care is generally seen as a democratic issue favoring biden s fervent stance of incrementally reaching universal coverage click for all candidates headlines on health care or for background information vouchers for school choice strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis 27 agree with biden s stance favoring public school choice and common core and 47 agree with trumps stance to fund vouchers for private schools education is primarily a non federal issue with 93 of funding and most decisions occuring at the state and local levels but education is solidly third in voter interest behind abortion and guns as measured by our viewership statistics so the candidates are obligated to make their views known despite the limited power of the presidency on this issue click for all candidates headlines on school choice or for background information prioritize green energy strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis this topic offers another of the most lopsided responses 56 in favor versus only 22 opposing the candidates sharply differ this is a particularly sharp difference because the question is worded in stronger terms than our previous quizzes 73 support to 14 oppose replace coal and oil with alternatives the majority agree with biden s stance that global warming is a serious threat vs trumps stance questioning climate change most notably this question had the lowest strongly oppose of any question only 7 reflecting that everyone claims to support green energy the catch phrase all of the above energy really means drill for oil and gas but pro oil and pro coal candidates like to say it includes solar and wind also click for all candidates headlines on energy or for background on environment or background on energy issues marijuana is a gateway drug strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis 53 support the drug war while 28 oppose it this has not been much of a campaign issue but trump biden disagree biden would treat drugs with treatment while trump would implement stronger penalties perhaps america has evolved due to marijuana legalization efforts but trump has evolved in the opposite direction favoring decriminalization in the 1990s but taking a harder line as a candidate click for all candidates headlines on drugs or for background information stimulus better than market led recovery strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis this is a new question since 2016 it is a defining difference between republicans and democrats during and after president obama s stimulus package and now the post covid recovery 51 of viewers agree with joe biden on supporting the federal stimulus 21 of viewers agree with the republicans and donald trump opposing the federal stimulus republicans recognize that viewers did support a federal response to the great recession so they pivot to their own definition of stimulus cutting taxes question below and reducing regulations question a few above click for all candidates headlines on budget and economy or for background information higher taxes on the wealthy strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis 28 agree with joe biden that the the wealthy should pay a greater share 51 agree with trump on cutting taxes on the wealthy this is an enormous shift since the 2016 election cycle when our question was worded make taxes more progressive 53 agreed with a more progressive tax structure and only 32 opposed this is the largest shift of any question on our quiz we attribute it to 1 the harsher wording progressive sounds nice tax the wealthy does not and 2 republican success at convincing the public that cutting taxes will create jobs and economic growth click for all candidates headlines on tax reform or for background information pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis our viewers are evenly split on immigration 39 support a pathway to citizenship and 39 oppose this question has been evenly split for many years keep in mind that for all questions the bias is towards answering yes so an even split means in general that opposition is stronger than support and donald trump capitalized on that trump calls for tougher enforcement and a border wall biden calls for comprehensive reforms click for all candidates headlines on immigration or for background information privatize social security strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis only 18 agree with biden s stance to keep social security within the federal government while 58 agree with trumps stance of privatization the highest support score of any question support of privatization in some aspect including calling for reforms in general have been rising in recent years social security until recently was called the third rail of politics touch it and you die but clearly the voters are ready for a change this question is perhaps the most skewed by our demographics our respondents are all internet users and hence are younger and more affluent than the general population click for all candidates headlines on social security or for background information support and expand free trade strongly support support no opinion oppose strongly oppose analysis free trade has a consensus in favor 47 to only 29 opposed trump biden agr...
