Autopsy Report: Coronavirus Cost Donald Trump ReelectionCharlie Spiering 2 Feb 2021
An autopsy report on former President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign demonstrates that voters’ perception of his coronavirus response affected his support in key swing states he won in 2016 but lost in 2020.
The report, which Trump’s chief campaign pollster Tony Fabrizio drafted, shows the coronavirus was the most important issue of the 2020 election.
The report comes from an analysis of exit polling in ten states — Five states Trump won in 2016 but lost in 2020; Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania and five states Trump won in 2016 and held in 2020; Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio, and Texas.
Politico first published the 27-page report.
Sixty percent of voters in states that flipped to Biden prioritized stopping the spread of the coronavirus over the growth of the economy while 40 percent felt the opposite way. The margins in states Trump held were slightly lower at 57 to 43.
