KEY FACTS
A Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted Monday and Tuesday found a slight shift in Vance’s favorability numbers, with 32% of respondents thinking of him favorably compared to 24% the prior week, though his unfavorability also increased, jumping from 30% to 39%.
An NPR/PBS News/Marist poll conducted Monday asking whether registered voters found Vance favorable or unfavorable found more (36%) were unsure or had not heard of him—though numbers were different along party lines, with 51% of Democrats finding him unfavorable compared to 11% of Republicans, and 57% of Republicans finding him favorable compared to 18% of Democrats.
A Monday-Tuesday CNN poll compared Vance’s favorability to what it was among registered voters in late June—before the convention—and found his favorability jumped from 13% to 28% while his unfavorability jumped from 20% to 34% and the amount of respondents who had never heard of him fell from 51% to 16%.
A YouGov poll conducted Sunday through Tuesday was the most thorough in its questions about Vance, asking whether people found him favorable, thought he was a good choice, helped Trump’s chances of winning, was qualified to be president and what people interpreted his ideology as (70% thought he was conservative or moderate).
BIG NUMBER
58%. That’s how many Republican respondents in the YouGov poll felt Vance helped Trump's chances of winning the election

The story/allegation there is that Vance has forsaken his hometown, the one he wrote about in his Hillbilly book that put him in the cultural and political maps.
