A recent poll shows that the majority of New Hampshire voters think the country is headed in the wrong direction, WMUR reported.
Saint Anselm College Survey Center conducted the poll of 1,323 registered voters from Oct. 20 to Oct. 22, WMUR reported. According to the poll, 68% of New Hampshire voters think the country is on the wrong track. Only 21% believe it’s headed in the right direction, WMUR reported.
“Right now, we’re seeing that New Hampshire voters are much more polarized and pessimistic about the future than ever before,” said poll director and executive director of the New Hampshire Institute of Politics Neil Levesque.
When asked to assess President Joe Biden’s job, 44% of those polled approved and 56% disapproved, WMUR reported.
