SALT LAKE CITY — When President Biden takes the podium for the annual State of the Union address Tuesday night, a new poll shows that 40% of the audience he’ll face is worse off financially since he took office.

The poll was conducted by ABC News and the Washington Post.

The same poll shows that close to the same amount, 36%, say Mr. Biden has accomplished “a great deal” or “a good amount,” during his time in office.

And overall, Americans appear to be skeptical about what the President will say. 

A Monmouth University poll produced similar results. And their researchers cite inflation as the number one concern for American families.

KSL NewsRadio’s Dave and Dujanovic discuss the new polls, and what President Biden must do to improve his numbers, next.
