What’s a word or phrase you’d use to describe the U.S. economy? To understand voters’ priorities – including their perceptions of the economy – and how it informed their presidential vote, Seven Letter Insight conducted a nationwide Post-Election Poll of one thousand self-identified 2024 election voters from November 7-13, 2024.
Seven Letter’s Post-Election Poll is different. Instead of surveying LIKELY voters before the election about HOW they plan to vote, our survey asks CONFIRMED voters challenging prioritization questions after the election to determine WHAT priorities and expectations they have for the incoming leadership.
In this comprehensive poll, we asked confirmed voters to describe the US economy in one word. What we learned: Trump voters were united in their perception that the economy struggled before the election – describing it as “terrible,” “horrible,” “poor,” and above all, just plain “bad.” Harris voters, on the other hand, were more divided — it was both “good” and “bad,” “strong” and “poor.”

In all, the vast majority (73%) of the electorate was unhappy with the way things were going in the country – and they wanted a change. Take a look at the Seven Letter Post-Election Poll results:
