Things Look Bad For Congressional Republicans

Posted on the 01 November 2017 by Jobsanger



I found this poll interesting. It is the Rasmussen Poll -- done on October 26th and 29th of a random national sample of 1,000 likely voters, with a margin of error of 3 points.
It shows that the Republicans in Congress are not popular with any of the three political preferences. Among Republicans, 61% say their views are closer to Trump than to the Republicans in Congress (showing the party is now the party of Trump. Among Democrats, 78% say their views are closer to congressional Democrats while 13% say they agree more with Trump. And among Independents, 41% say they agree with congressional Democrats, 28% agree with Trump, and only 11% agree with congressional Republicans (possibly foretelling a flipping of Congress next year).
