Quick Glance: Trump Narrows Gap with Young Voters, Biden's Lead Shrinks - Survey Results

A new poll shows that former President Donald Trump continues to reduce his deficit with young voters compared to President Joe Biden.

In the Harvard Youth Poll released on Thursday, Biden leads among 18- to 29-year-olds with 45 percent compared to 37 percent for Trump, while 16 percent are undecided.

Biden holds a significant lead among likely voters who are non-white or female. He outperforms Trump by 47 points among college graduates and by 23 points among students.

The survey also indicates that Trump's younger supporters are much more enthusiastic about the former president than their peers who support Biden, and that Biden's approval rating among young adults is only at 31 percent.

Quick Glance: Jack Smith Urges Supreme Court to Reject Trump's Immunity Claim

Special counsel Jack Smith pushed the Supreme Court in a court filing ahead of the April 25 arguments to reject former President Donald Trump's stance that he should be given absolute immunity in the federal election interference case.

Outlined in the 66-page filing were a series of arguments by Smith and his team against Trump's assertion that a president is shielded from criminal prosecution.

Prosecutors contended that there are no presidential authorities that would grant Trump immunity in this instance, and historical evidence discredits Trump's assertions.

Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith in 2022 to probe Trump's alleged involvement in disputing the 2020 presidential election results. The Supreme Court is scheduled to conduct oral arguments on Trump's immunity argument on April 25.

Biden hauls in $90 million in March as campaign embarks on general election blitz

cnn.com/2024/04/06/politics/biden-fundraising-march/

Quick Glance: Trump campaign expects $50 million haul at fundraiser

Former President Trump is expected to rake in approximately $50 million at a fundraising event in Palm Beach, Florida, on Saturday night, under the leadership of hedge fund billionaire John Paulson. This amount would double what three Democratic presidents recently raised for President Biden’s reelection campaign war chest.

The expected sum would double the amount raised by Biden's campaign at a fundraiser in New York City last week.

The event will help support Trump's campaign, the Republican National Committee (RNC), his Save America PAC, and state GOP parties under their joint fundraising agreement.

Trump and the RNC announced that they raised more than $65.6 million last month and entered April with over $91.3 million in cash. The Biden campaign's fundraising arm was also active in March, revealing a $90 million haul for the month and starting the second quarter with $192 million in cash on hand.

Two right-wing political operatives must pay up to $1.25 million in fines after being found liable for a robocall campaign targeting Black New Yorkers in the 2020 election.

The messages included false warnings that mail-in voting would lead to personal information being shared with police departments and credit card companies.

Under a settlement, Wohl and Burkman must pay a $1 million judgment to the NY attorney general’s office, the NCBCP, and the harmed plaintiffs.

Wohl and Burkman have faced charges in other states for similar robocall schemes targeting Black voters in 2020.

Quick Glance: Focus on Support for Israel and Ukraine by Mike Johnson

House Speaker Mike Johnson is heavily advocating for support for Israel and Ukraine while trying to push a national security package through the House.

Johnson faces the challenge of juggling the Republican Party's divided support for Kyiv's defense while feeling the pressure to pass a comprehensive aid package for U.S. allies.

In his quest to find ways to promote funding for Ukraine, Johnson is engaging in discussions with the White House and former president Donald Trump. The divisive dynamic within the party and the urgency of the situation in Ukraine present a significant challenge for Johnson.

Johnson must craft a package that includes some policy wins for Republicans while also gaining Democratic approval. Despite concerns from some progressive Democrats regarding support for Israel, most Democratic lawmakers have rallied behind the Senate-passed package.

The Turkish opposition’s stunning turnround: President Erdoğan must resist returning to populist policies, and stifling his competitors

ft.com/content/86c3f1cb-5d40-49dd-8971-66565577f4ae

Quick Glance: The Turkish opposition’s remarkable transformation

President Erdoğan should avoid reverting to populist policies and suppressing his competitors.

In a remarkable shift in its fate, the opposition Republican People’s party (CHP) secured 38 percent of the national votes, while support for the AKP dropped to 35 percent.

The outcomes of the local elections have demonstrated that millions of Turks still believe in the power of the ballot box and are willing to utilize it to express their dissatisfaction with the president and his AKP's governance.

It is crucial for Erdoğan to maintain the economic course and resist any temptation to return to his detrimental past policies. This would have dire consequences for Turkey. Additionally, there should be no endeavor to utilize state tools to undermine the opposition's achievements.

Biden may have trouble getting on Ohio’s general election ballot, state’s top election official warns

nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/biden-may-trouble-getting-ohios-general-election-ballot-rcna146706

Quick Glance: New Challenge Emerges for Biden in Ohio

There is a possibility that President Joe Biden may encounter issues accessing general election ballots in Ohio due to a potential conflict in state law.

According to a letter in Newsweek's possession, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose's legal advisor is seeking clarification on an evident conflict in Ohio law between the nominating process of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the deadline for the state to certify the party's presidential candidate.

A deadline for a resolution has been set, with a request for 'immediate attention to the matter'. It was noted that either the Democratic National Committee must reschedule its nominating convention or the Ohio General Assembly must establish an exception to this legal requirement by May 9, 2024.

Despite Trump's current lead in Ohio, several polls suggest that Biden's chances of reelection in November have improved, with two reputable polling aggregates indicating he is tied with or ahead of Trump.
