“I have never had a session blow up where the participants were disappointed on both sides, where everyone was embarrassed and everyone was upset about what had happened,” pollster FrankLuntz said about his focus group’s reaction to last night’s debate.
Trump and former Vice President Biden held a bitter 90-minute debate Tuesday night, the first of three scheduled debates ahead of the Nov. 3 election. The candidates frequently interrupted the other, with Biden at one point saying to Trump,"They felt like they didn't get the policy they were looking for," such as on economic issues, Luntz said, referring to the more than dozen participants in his debate focus group.
Luntz said the debate made him recalibrate some expectations about voter participation in the election. "I would have said to you, we're going to have the biggest turnout ever. What happened last night absolutely encouraged people not to vote."
