A Gallup poll taken late in 2023 shows that 53 percent of Americans think that the Republicans are better at running the economy, a 14 percentage-point lead over the Democrats that is the highest since 1991. An IPSOS poll taken around the same time shows roughly the same thing – a 10-point lead for Republicans on the economy: 35 percent to 25 percent. An NBC poll from late 2023 shows an even wider gap of 49 percent to 28 percent in favor of the GOP. Finally, a snap poll of those who watched the Trump-Harris debate in September also gave the Republican Party a 20-point margin on the economy, although the margin has shrunk since then.
