In the debate Thursday, viewers mostly want to hear about Joe Biden and Donald Trump’s plans for the country and their achievements as president, more than critiques of each other.
Some will also be looking for whether or not these men have the mental and cognitive health to serve (a concern that voters have expressed to some degree about each of the candidates in previous polls).
Whether or not they watch it live, voters nationwide overwhelmingly think former President Trump should be more polite than forceful in the debate, and that includes a majority in his own party.
The economy, inflation, democracy, crime and the border are top issues for voters, so those tuning in may be looking for what the candidates have to say about these topics.
Voters who are thinking “a lot” about the presidential campaign are particularly likely to tune in and watch the debate live.
