The economy, the coronavirus pandemic and racial injustice have emerged as top issues for voters in the 2020 presidential election, according to NBC News exit polls. While President Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Joe Biden have often framed the election as a choice regarding character, 72% of voters believed a candidate’s issue positions were more important than their personal qualities, NBC News exit polls found. As polls begin to close across the country and states begin to tally ballots, results released tonight and in the coming days will show how these issues translated into votes for president.
