Americans' willingness to vote has declined at an unprecedented rate

The results of the opinion poll show that only 38% of American voters have a positive view of Biden. In addition, the same percentage of voters, with only a small difference, have a positive view of Trump.

Jeff Horwitt, the head of the Democratic poll who helped make the exercise run by NBC News, said: "Americans disagree a lot these days, but nothing unites the country more right now than the desire of voters to ignore this election".

And Bill McInturff, the manager of the NBC opinion survey from the Republican party, has said, the results of the survey show that the number of voters will be low in November, especially among young people.

He explained that only 36 percent of voters under the age of 35 have a strong desire to vote in this year's election. While 70% of Republicans and 65% of Democrats are very interested in a rematch between Biden and Trump, only 48% of independent voters are interested in the issue.

The poll has also shown that Trump is ahead of Biden by a small margin of 46% to 44% if they compete alone. But if additional candidates are included, Biden will beat Trump by 39 percent to 37 percent of the vote. And the reason is that Trump will lose more voters who would vote for him if there is another option other than Biden.../
