What Voters Thought Of The Dueling Presidential Town Halls

Via YouGov:

A snap poll conducted by YouGov immediately after the Donald Trumpand Joe Biden town halls sheds light on how voters felt about the dueling televised events.

Overall, 14% of registered voters said they watched President Trump’s town hall in Miami on NBC, 17% said they watched Biden’s on ABC in Philadelphia, and 15% of voters watched portions of both town halls. Viewership of the two events was predictably split along party lines31% of Democrats watched Biden exclusively and 28% of Republicans watched just Trump. 

It appears Biden’s town hall was slightly more effective in swayingvoters. Of those voters who watched both town halls, half (50%) said the Biden town hall made them view the former vice president somewhat ormuch more favorably, while 39% of those voters said so of the president.
 
Among those who watched both town halls, three in five (60%) thought Joe Biden was at least mostly honest, while a third (33%) thought he was mostly or completely dishonest. Half (50%) of those who watched both events perceived Trump as honest, while about as many (48%) said he was dishonest. 

Generally speaking, those who tuned in to watch Trump’s town hall were split on whether or not he did a good job answering questions (42% said good, 42% said bad) and 15% said his responses were neither good nor bad. Among Biden’s viewers, 52% thought the former vice president did a good job, while 28% thought he did a bad job, and 18% were on the fence.

The tandem town halls were scheduled after the second presidential debate was canceled. Of those who tuned into Biden’s appearance, about three in five (62%) thought he performed better at the town hall than at the first presidential debate, while just 17% thought he had a better showing at the first debate. About half (51%) of Trump’s audience thought he did better tonight at the town hall, while 20% thought he performed better at the debate. 

Among registered voters who managed to watch portions of both events, 56% think said that it was wrong for the two town halls to be held at the same time and broadcast on different networks. About one-third (33%)think it was the right decision.  

Half (50%) of those who watched Trump’s town hall say it was the right choice for the two events to be held at the same time and broadcast on different networks, while 40% say it was wrong.  

Among those voters who watched Biden’s town hall, 72% say it was wrong for these to be held at the same time on different networks. About one in six (16%) think it was right. 

The third presidential debate is still scheduled, and many voters think it should still take place, either virtually or in person. A majority (59%) of those who watched both candidates’ town halls think next week’s debate should still happen. About one-quarter (26%) of this group thinks that the debate should be replaced by a single town hall event, and just 4% would like to see another evening with two separate town hall events. 

About two-thirds (67%) of those who watched Trump’s town hall say that next week’s debate should still take place. Another 18% of this group says the debate should be replaced by a singular town hall event. 

About half (48%) of those who watched Biden’s town hall think that next week’s debate should happen. The remainder think that the debate should be replaced with a single town hall (20%), separate town hall events (10%), or canceled altogether and not replaced with anything (18%).
