REPUBLICANS ARE WINNING THE GENERIC CONGRESSIONAL BALLOT 53% TO 47% AMONG LIKELY VOTERS
55% OF AMERICANS BLAME BIDEN FOR INFLATION, INCLUDING 42% OF DEMOCRATS
BIDEN'S DEBT RELIEF AND MARIJUANA PARDONS ARE POPULAR BUT DON'T MOVE THE NEEDLE ELECTORALLY FOR DEMOCRATS
/PRNewswire/ -- Stagwell (NASDAQ: STGW) today released the results of the October Harvard-CAPS Harris Poll, a monthly collaboration between the Center for American Political Studies at Harvard (CAPS) and the Harris Poll and HarrisX.
Republicans are connecting with voters on their key issues of inflation, crime, and immigration, while Americans see Democrats as mostly focused on January 6, women's rights, and the environment. Biden continues to struggle on the economy, which is the key issue: 84% of Americans think the US is in a recession now or will be by next year, and 58% are not confident in Biden's ability to hold inflation at bay.
Other topics surveyed in this month's poll include voter views on Biden's marijuana pardon and student debt plans, and US foreign policy around oil and Ukraine. Download key results here.
"Republicans are inching back towards a wave election after a summer when abortion seemed to turn the tides," said Mark Penn, Co-Director of the Harvard-CAPS Harris Poll and Stagwell Chairman and CEO. "People are more motivated to vote when they are upset, and the Republicans are capturing voter dissatisfaction on inflation, crime, and immigration. Americans are suffering incredible economic anxiety on top of normal buyer's remorse for the president and his party in a midterm."
Republicans are winning the generic Congressional ballot 53-47 among likely voters.
Inflation, crime, and immigration are the most important issues voters picked heading into the midterms – and based on each, voters say they are over 10 points more likely to vote Republican than Democratic.

voters finally admitted they could live with the mean tweets if it meant a decent and safe life for their families.....
If the independents continue to move to the Republicans, it will be a huge red wave.
A number that I would hope to see is what % of the vote Republicans get from black males not living in inner cites.
and one week before the midterms, Boston University is told to “Accidentally” release that new 80 percent fatality rate covid variant and poof no elections
There’s only one reason the GOP should not win huge. And that would be because too many people have been educated in public schools over the past 40 years.
Working class men, of all races, have been moving to the right for about a decade now.
It remains to be seen if the Republican party, aka the stupid party, can be made to recognize that they need to embrace the concerns of guys if they are to have any po9litical future.
The establishment types are certainly resisting this, which is why Trump remains an essential figure in American politics. He’s the only person positioned to 86 the old guard and move the party along with the populist tide.
It's a start...
we better be more than an inch away from winning.
We won’t get fooled again....................Meet the new boss...................same as the old boss..................
Buyers’ Remorse Building
“With the 2020 election decided by about 42,000 votes in three states, the American people are right to think about what might have been,” argues David N. Bossie at FoxNews.
Instead of running “a real campaign,” Joe Biden “hid in his basement” using COVID “as an excuse.” The major media gave him “a free pass and now we’re all stuck paying the price” as he proves “that Jimmy Carter is no longer the worst president in history.”
He “promised to unite us but never even attempted it” and “also promised to shut down the pandemic, but we’ve lost more lives to COVID on his watch than President Trump’s.”
And “things are going to get worse in 2022 before they get better because Biden is too tone deaf and arrogant to admit he’s wrong and call for a course correction.” What to do? “Weather the storm until November,” when control of Congress is up from grabs.
I could not agree with you more.
President Nixon in 1972 and President Reagan in both 1980 and 1984 connected with working class men. So did President Trump in 2016. And that of course is why the political establishment needed to smear them in anyway they could.
I am convinced that Country Club Republicans will vote for a leftwing socialist who will close down the clubs and send the members off to re-education camps before voting for a Trump like candidate.
I heard Binn’s MJ pardon only affected 7500 people, and since a federal charge for MJ is usually only in addition to some major federal charges, that no one actually got out of jail for this.
You called it right. My brother tells me about his rich friend in Atlanta. They were best pals in high school. This guy made it big. Goes to all the sporting events, country clubs, etc...Registered Republican and loves Biden and the Democrats. Is voting for Warnock. Ivory tower Republicans.
Dominion and stuffed ballot boxes will win and will continue to win until the current criminal election system is changed. The people really need to force that change or this country is done for, if it isn’t already too late.
PA Senate is the bellweather...
If the craptastic candidate named Oz wins PA... it will be a lambasting of democrats up and down the ballot.
If he loses, will still be a good night for the GOP, but it won’t be the absolute route it could be.
Republicans can thank DJT for instituting successful policies that turned this country into a powerhouse again in quick fashion. Biden coming in and destroying it is only half the story.
PA is a mystery to me. Fetterman looks and acts like a street thug, despite the fact he comes from money. A majority of PA wants him to represent them in the Senate???
Survey sample is not revealed. Common tactic to conceal fraudulently weighted population [eg 70% are D’s, 12% R’s, and rest are ‘undeclared’]. They do this over and over, until someone finds/publishes the raw data 2-3 news cycles later, then the poll mysteriously goes away.
Add 15-20%.
