American voters don't trust CNN, MSNBC ahead of U.S elections, says this poll

MSNBC has a slightly better net negative rating at 4 points with 44% favorable and 40% having unfavorable opinions.

This poll revealed an increase in skepticism among independent voters; CNN presented a net negative rating of 10 points, while MSNBC was at 9. Breaking this down to voters under 45 years old, CNN netted -11 and MSNBC netted at -5. The verdict reveals that both networks are abysmally failing to get ahead in terms of trust, even during major demographics.

Mike Davis, founder of the Article III Project, said, that efforts to bring about the downfall of former President Trump through the courts and in news accounts might be backfiring. The data suggests that the distrust of mainstream media continues to rise, especially far-left venues like CNN and MSNBC, and this is beginning to seep into the independents. Such a trend may affect the way voters view election season.

Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are neck and neck in battleground states like Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin in the polling.

While the former leads the latter in most states, Harris leads in Nevada, while the two seem to engage in a dead heat in Pennsylvania. The poll instead indicates the result is such that neither candidate can conclusively ascertain a strong majority win, meaning there is absolutely a critical opportunity to win undecided voters.
