Who won the first presidential debate? NewsNation asked for your input.
After the two candidates went head-to-head in Tuesday’s debate in Cleveland moderated by Fox News’ Chris Wallace, NewsNation asked viewers to participate in a poll.
Biden and Trump debated a variety of topics: the candidate’s records, the coronavirus pandemic, the economy, race and violence, Supreme Court vacancy, climate change and election integrity.
Roughly 61% of NewsNation poll participants answered that President Donald Trump won the debate, while 33% voted for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
About 5% voted that the two candidates tied.
More than 5,100 votes were cast in NewsNation’s poll by the end of Tuesday night.
