A recent survey conducted by Tennessee Lookout found that voters in Tennessee have a more favorable opinion of the state’s economy than the national economy. The survey, which polled 630 likely voters in Tennessee, revealed that 47% of respondents viewed the state’s economy as either excellent or good, compared to only 34% who felt the same way about the national economy.
The survey also showed that 44% of respondents believed that the state’s economy was heading in the right direction, while only 30% said the same about the national economy. Additionally, 41% of voters in Tennessee felt that job opportunities in the state were either good or excellent, while only 27% said the same about the national job market.
These results suggest that Tennessee voters are more optimistic about the economic outlook in their state compared to the country as a whole. The survey findings also reflect a trend seen in other states, where voters tend to have a more positive view of the local economy than the national economy.
In light of these findings, it is clear that the state’s economic performance is an important factor for Tennessee voters. As the state continues to navigate through the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and other economic uncertainties, policymakers and elected officials should take into account the views and concerns of voters when shaping economic policies and strategies.
Overall, the survey highlights the importance of understanding and addressing the economic priorities and views of Tennessee voters in order to effectively address their needs and concerns.
