For this analysis, we surveyed 11,818 U.S. adults in November 2020, including 10,399 U.S. citizens who reported having voted in the November election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everyone who took part in this survey is a member of Pew Research Center\u2019s American Trends Panel (ATP), an online survey panel that is recruited through national, random sampling of residential addresses. This way nearly all U.S. adults have a chance of selection. The survey is weighted to be representative of the U.S. adult population by gender, race, ethnicity, partisan affiliation, education and other categories.

While a 59% majority of all voters say elections in the United States were run and administered well, just 21% of Trump supporters have a positive view of how elections were administered nationally. Among Biden supporters, 94% say the elections were run and administered well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disagreements between supporters of the winning and losing candidates over the accuracy of presidential vote counts are not unusual, but the magnitude of the differences between Trump and Biden voters is striking. While 82% of Biden supporters are very confident <em>their own<\/em> vote was counted accurately, just 35% of Trump supporters say the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The weeks since Biden\u2019s victory have been marked by the Trump campaign\u2019s frantic and thus far unsuccessful attempts to challenge the election results in several states. Voters express much more positive views of Biden\u2019s conduct since the election than Trump\u2019s \u2013 and 57% say the Trump campaign\u2019s legal challenges to the voting and ballot counting process should end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A majority of voters (62%) say Biden\u2019s post-election conduct has been excellent or good, while just half as many (31%) give Trump positive ratings for his conduct since the election. About seven-in-ten (68%) view Trump\u2019s conduct as only fair or poor, with a 54% majority rating it poor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-310-wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/politics\/2020\/11\/20\/sharp-divisions-on-vote-counts-as-biden-gets-high-marks-for-his-post-election-conduct\/pp_2020-11-20_post-election_0-02-png\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"efede6\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #efede6;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-02.png?resize=480,735 480w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-02.png?resize=622,952 622w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"474\" width=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-02.png?w=622\" alt=\"Biden\u2019s conduct since the election is viewed far more positively than Trump\u2019s\" class=\"wp-image-59730 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both Biden and Trump, unsurprisingly, get largely positive ratings from their own supporters. However, about a third of Trump voters (34%) rate his conduct since the election as only fair or poor, compared with just 4% of Biden voters who give the former vice president low marks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still, while a majority of all voters say the Trump campaign should halt efforts to challenge the election, Trump voters are overwhelmingly supportive of these challenges: 85% say they should continue. Biden voters overwhelmingly say they should end (96% express this view).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As disputes over the election continue, the nation has been struggling with a record surge in coronavirus cases. And, as with views of the election process, Biden and Trump supporters are far apart on how to address the <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/topics\/coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19\/\">COVID-19<\/a> surge. Most Biden voters (66%) favor tighter restrictions on public activity in their communities. But just 16% of Trump voters say the same; more than twice as many (44%) say there should be <em>fewer<\/em> restrictions, while 40% say they should remain about the same as they are currently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new survey by Pew Research Center, conducted Nov. 12-17 on the nationally representative American Trends Panel among 11,818 U.S. adults, including 10,399 who say they voted in the presidential election, finds far greater agreement about the need for additional governmental assistance in response to the coronavirus outbreak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-310-wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/politics\/2020\/11\/20\/sharp-divisions-on-vote-counts-as-biden-gets-high-marks-for-his-post-election-conduct\/pp_2020-11-20_post-election_0-03-png\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"e9e6db\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #e9e6db;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-03.png?resize=480,549 480w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-03.png?resize=622,712 622w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"355\" width=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-03.png?w=622\" alt=\"Most say new COVID-19 aid is needed \u2013 and want Congress to act ASAP\" class=\"wp-image-59733 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A large majority of Americans (80%) say it is necessary for the president and Congress to pass more coronavirus aid, on top of the $2 trillion package enacted in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And an overwhelming majority of those who view more assistance as necessary think Congress and the president should act on it as soon as possible, rather than waiting until after the presidential inauguration in January. About two-thirds of Americans (68%) say a new aid package is necessary <em>and<\/em> that it be acted upon by the president and current Congress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"other-key-findings\">Other key findings:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Biden continues to engender more confidence on coronavirus.<\/strong> The survey finds only modest changes in confidence in Biden and Trump on key issues since the election. As was the case before the election, Biden draws far more public confidence than Trump to handle the public health impact of the coronavirus; 58% are very or somewhat confident in Biden, compared with 39% who express confidence in Trump. Comparable shares of Americans have confidence in Biden (52%) and Trump (53%) to make good decisions about economic policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Partisans diverge in views of future trajectory of nation\u2019s economy.<\/strong> Views of the economy, which have been highly partisan for many years, have begun to shift following the election. While Republicans remain more positive than Democrats about current economic conditions, Democrats have become much more bullish in their views about the economy over the next year. Six-in-ten Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say economic conditions will be better a year from now, compared with just 23% of Republicans and Republicans leaners. Last month, Republicans were far more likely than Democrats to say the economy would improve over the next year (65% of Republicans, 42% of Democrats).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-420-wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/politics\/2020\/11\/20\/sharp-divisions-on-vote-counts-as-biden-gets-high-marks-for-his-post-election-conduct\/pp_2020-11-20_post-election_0-04-png\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"eceae6\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #eceae6;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-04.png?resize=480,382 480w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-04.png?resize=782,623 782w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-04.png?resize=844,672 844w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"334\" width=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2020\/11\/PP_2020.11.20_post-election_0-04.png?w=844\" alt=\"In historic election, only about a quarter of voters say they cast ballots on Election Day\" class=\"wp-image-59736 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nearly half of voters say they voted by mail or absentee. Largely because of concerns over the pandemic, mail and absentee voting increased dramatically in 2020. Nearly half of voters (46%) say they voted by absentee or mail \u2013 including 18% who report casting ballots by mail for the first time. A 54% majority say they voted in person, with equal shares voting on Election Day or before the election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>For most voters, casting ballots was \u201cvery easy.\u201d<\/strong> Despite the dramatic changes in how Americans voted this year, a sizable majority (77%) say voting in the election was very easy. These views differ only modestly among those who voted by mail or absentee, and in person before Election Day or on Election Day itself. And while Trump and Biden supporters have substantial disagreements over the accuracy of the vote count and how the elections were administered, 81% of Biden voters and 73% of Trump supporters found it very easy to vote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A large majority of Americans say additional COVID-19 aid is needed \u2013 and want Congress to pass it as soon as
