Ahead of the first presidential debate between President Biden and former President Trump, voters in several battleground states have expressed reservations about both candidates, citing concerns about Biden's age and Trump's rhetoric.
As the highly anticipated first presidential debate between President Biden and former President Trump draws near, voters in key battleground states have begun to voice their concerns about both candidates. In interviews aired Thursday with CNN's John King, voters in Arizona, Georgia, and Michigan expressed reservations that could potentially sway the outcome of the upcoming election.
One of the most pressing concerns raised by voters was President Biden's age. Georgia voter Kim Cavaliere expressed discomfort with Biden's age, saying, "I just don't feel comfortable with Biden's age, and I don't feel comfortable with Trump's mouth."

Voter Concerns Emerge in Battleground States Ahead of Biden-Trump Debate
Biden's age and potential health concerns have been a persistent topic of discussion throughout his presidency. Some voters worry about his ability to handle the demands of the office, particularly in light of the recent challenges he has faced with COVID-19 and other health issues.
Conversely, former President Trump's rhetoric and demeanor were also a source of concern for voters. Cavaliere's concerns echoed the sentiments of many who are put off by Trump's divisive language and frequent attacks on opponents.

"I don't feel comfortable with Trump's mouth," Cavaliere said. "He's always saying something outrageous."
Other voters highlighted the economic issues that have become more pressing in recent months. Georgia voter Carey Fulks expressed concern about the rising cost of living, saying, "Everything here in Georgia is so expensive. I can only afford so much with whatever job I find."

Voter Concerns Emerge in Battleground States Ahead of Biden-Trump Debate
The economy has emerged as a key battleground in the upcoming election, with both Biden and Trump offering contrasting plans to address inflation and economic growth.
In addition to economic concerns, foreign policy issues have also played a role in shaping voter opinions. Some voters in Michigan, which has a large Muslim community, expressed disappointment with Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas war. "Nobody wants to vote for Biden," said Wolverine State voter Ibrahim Ghazal. "If Biden wants to get certain votes, he needs to change course."
Meanwhile, several voters expressed a desire for a third option, a candidate who could bridge the divide between Biden and Trump. "I wish we had a candidate that had more of a middle of life and middle of the road perspective," said Arizona voter Ray Flores. "I'm very uncomfortable right now with either choice."
As the first debate approaches, these voter concerns will likely play a crucial role in shaping the outcome of the election. The candidates will have an opportunity to address these concerns and present themselves as the best choice to lead the country forward.
The intensifying battle for control of key battleground states, coupled with the widening divide between voters, creates a highly contested political landscape in the lead-up to Election Day.
