As "Israel" maintains its aggression against the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, voters in the presidential election remain divided on the issue of US involvement, according to the NBC News Exit Poll.
The poll showed that voters were nearly evenly divided: some felt US support for "Israel" was too strong, others thought it was insufficient, while a third group believed it was about right.
The war has become a significant point of contention in the election, with stark differences in opinion between Harris and Trump supporters.
Additionally, the poll revealed significant generational divides in how different age groups view "Israel's" role in the war.
Trump, Harris agree on genocide
The genocide in Gaza has proven to be a decisive matter for voters partaking in the US 2024 elections, particularly as Kamala Harris continues to support "Israel" and its crimes, financially, militarily, and politically.
Despite what voters and citizens have repeatedly called for throughout the year leading up to the elections, it does seem like all demands have gone unanswered, with both candidates showcasing unwavering support for the occupation.
While Harris and Trump seemed to have been on opposite ends of the spectrum concerning said issues, it was made clear that whether the White House is painted Red or Blue, the US stance on the Israeli occupation will remain unwavering.
Late last month, most Democratic US voters, 57%, held the Israeli occupation responsible for the war in the Middle East, while 46% of the same category opposed the United States' continued provision of weapons to "Israel's" military and 47% opposed sending US government funds to aid "Israel's" military.
Meanwhile, most of the registered voters, 54%, oppose the deployment of US troops to aid "Israel's" military, with 51% among Republican voters, 51% among independent voters, and 58% among Democratic voters, a recent poll conducted by AP-NORC revealed.
This is driven by the fear among registered voters that the current situation in the Middle East would escalate into an even broader war, and about 4 in 10 are worried the United States will be drawn into it.
The poll revealed a major divide among American voters ahead of the November 5 elections, particularly regarding the escalation of hostilities in the Middle East.
Most of the sampled Democratic voters blamed "Israel" for the war and its expansion in the region.
