JD Vance's Favorability Dips After Initial Debate Boost

Despite a strong debate performance, JD Vance's popularity has declined, returning to pre-debate levels according to recent polls.

JD Vance's favorability ratings have plummeted to -10, a significant drop from the -2 rating he achieved shortly after the vice presidential debate.
The Economist/YouGov poll conducted between October 12 and 15 shows Vance's ratings have returned to their pre-debate lows.
Vance's debate performance was praised for its civility and substance, with some pundits noting his 'anti-Trump' demeanor as a positive shift.
Despite the debate success, Vance's past controversial remarks and associations continue to impact his public perception negatively.
Political analysts suggest that short-term fluctuations in polling are common and may not necessarily reflect long-term trends.
