Though Trump gets the lion's share of the blame among voters who believe the country isn't better off, the total number of likely voters who feel that way is still less than a majority, considering that the 66% of 58% who didn't think the country was inbetter shape is equal to 38%.

The survey of 1,842 Likely Voters was conducted by Rasmussen using a mixed mode approach from October 23-24, 2020. It included 828 Respondents who have already voted.
