Republicans Even with Democrats
Timothy Birdnow
And bear in mind these polls are always several points off, and almost always in favor of the Democrats. Oh, and the public is just starting to pay attention now.
These aren't "Republican" polls either but Harris, Harris X, and the Center for American Political Studies at Harvard (CAPS).
Iff we are seeing this you know the Democrats are seeing much more of it, using their private polls.
They have to be in full panic mode right now. That is, of course, part of why they are going to try to crash the President's foreign policy at this point. Trump is doing exactly what Clinton, Obama, and Biden all had done yet they are acting as if he just invaded Poland.
They have to convince the public he's not just wrong but evil. They've succeeded with some too.
FTA:
The poll of 1,999 registered voters, which was conducted online between February 25 and 26, found that 50% of Americans would vote for the Republican candidate in their congressional district and 50% would vote for the Democratic one if the midterms were held today. That marked an enormous improvement for the GOP, which trailed the Democrats 54%-46% on the same question last month..
People are just starting to pay attention now. Also, Democrats usually do better in polls because a.the Republicans work and can't take time to answer these polls b.Democrats do not c.older folks, who tend to be more conservative, tend not to answer polls and especially polls online. So even when the polls are on the up-and-up they favor the Democrats (most polls are NOT on the up-and-up but are designed to sway public opinion).
As I say the party has better polling than this and no doubt the knocking of their knees can be heard as far away as Britain.
I sure hope this is true; we've got to keep control of both houses of Congress or all this will be for nothing.
