Edit: oh, something that really changes how these stats are viewed. The poll was conducted solely by phone.
I do think it's worth noting that they specifically polled swing states. It's a bit different imo to address political stances in specifically swing states and to use that to judge the beliefs of society overall. I think it's also worth noting exactly how they phrased the questions. These answers also make me think that these aren't really swing states at all. I'm appalled by them.

This is not an objective or unbiased pollster: the American Principles Project is a far-right stack of dark money with some window dressing.
