Poll: Voter Sentiment Spells Defeat for Democrats in Midterms
Two-Thirds of Americans Say Democrats Have Not Made a Case to Earn Votes in Midterms
Over 80% of Voters Say Republicans Will Win Control of One or Both Chambers in Congress
(Austin, TX—November 1, 2022) Convention of States Action, in partnership with The Trafalgar Group—one of America’s most accurate pollsters in 2016, 2018, 2020, and 2021—is releasing the results of a new national survey. Results were from surveys conducted October 25th through October 30th of over 1,000 likely 2022 election voters.
“The American people are wise, pragmatic, and understand what needs to be done to get the nation back on track, despite the fact that so many elected officials in Washington, DC do not. In the final estimation, voters–even Democratic voters–have determined that the current leadership is not getting it done, and believe Republicans will sweep big on election day,” said Mark Meckler, President of the Convention of States. “However, our previous polling shows that Republicans have also failed to make a strong enough case to voters, and thus should be mindful that–if they succeed–the public has high expectations for them to fulfill campaign promises and deliver solutions.”
