A new Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll surveyed 4,956 registered voters across seven battleground swing states

More than half of swing-state voters would not vote for Donald Trump in the upcoming 2024 presidential race if he were convicted of a crime, according to a new Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll.

The poll of voters in seven battleground states showed that 53% of respondents would not vote for the former president if he is guilty of a crime. Additionally, if Trump, 77, were sentenced to prison, the number would increase to 55%.

Bloomberg/Morning Consult surveyed a sample of 4,956 registered voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin from Jan. 16 through 22, 2024. The participants varied based on gender, age, race, marital status, home ownership, 2020 Presidential vote and state of residence.
