From March 17, 2022 post.

Over two-thirds of US voters believe crime is worsening across the country and they believe the issue will figure prominently in the 2022 midterms.

According to a Rasmussen Reports survey released towards the end of February, 65% of likely US voters believe America’s violent crime in America is worsening. Only 11% believe the crime problem is improving, whereas another 22% indicated that violent crime is about the same.

83% believe the violent crime issue will be important in the 2022 election cycle, which includes 56% who stated that crime will be “very important.” By contrast, just 16% don’t believe violent crime will be an important issue in the 2022 elections. 

50% of voters believe the Biden administration’s approach to dealing with violent crime is worse than the previous Trump administration’s crime policies. On the other hand, 29% believe Biden’s crime policies are superior to Trump’s. 17% believe the crime policies of the Trump and Biden administrations are the same.
