AP VoteCast: Minnesota voters sour on state of nation

Associated Press  

Voters in Minnesota gave Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden its 10 electoral college votes while holding negative views about the country’s direction, according to an expansive AP survey of the American electorate. AP VoteCast found that more than 3 in 10 Minnesota voters said the U.S. is on the right track and more than 6 in 10 voters said it is headed in the wrong direction. “He doesn’t have leadership,” Biden was preferred over Trump among both voters in cities and suburban voters but Trump led Biden among voters in small towns and rural areas. STAYING AT HOME Among registered voters who chose not to cast a ballot in Minnesota, about one-quarter said that was because they don’t like politics generally, 2 in 10 said they don’t like the candidates and 1 in 10 said they don’t know enough about the candidates’ positions.
