One poll indicated that Republican nominee Donald Trump might be raising his chances among single-issue crypto voters, given 67 days before the United States presidential election, which is projected to be somewhat tight.
A poll conducted by Fairleigh Dickinson University on Aug. 30 of 801 US voters who claimed they possessed digital assets revealed that these individuals were more inclined to support Trump over Democratic nominee Kamala Harris in November. According to the national poll taken between Aug. 17 and Aug. 20, Trump led Harris by 12 points among registered voters who own cryptocurrencies, while Harris led by 12 points among non-crypto holders.
“Trump has been interacting with the crypto community, and it seems to have paid off,” Fairleigh Dickinson professor Dan Cassino said. “I don’t think people realize exactly how common crypto ownership is, even if it would be simple to discount them as negligible.”
As the election draws near, the poll did not really probe respondents regarding the policies of the presidential contenders on cryptocurrencies or blockchain, which has been evolving. From declaring Bitcoin a “scam” in 2021 to having his campaign defend miners and accept crypto donations in 2024, Trump has openly changed his stance.
Vice President Harris launched her campaign on July 21 and has mainly stayed quiet on digital matters. A Harris staffer allegedly indicated during the Democratic National Convention that the presidential contender will “support policies” for the expansion of the crypto sector.
The poll also took place before Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s announcement of suspending his campaign and promising support for Trump in 2024. Given the Independent candidate appears to gain support from many, including those leaning Democrat or Republican, it is uncertain whether single-issue crypto voters supporting RFK Jr. will automatically migrate to Trump.
