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.

Oz is a fraud, a globalist, a RINO and a gun grabber, he’s completely off brand for a statewide candidate.. without question the WORST candidate to run for Senate in PA in my over 30 years of voting in PA.

He’ll play well in the purple districts around easter PA/Philly but will likely do well under typical R in the rest of the state.

If he wins, he’ll wind purely because of the environment he’s running in.. if he wins a ham sandwich would win as long as it had an R by its name.

An absolutely CRAP candidate.... Both sides are running folks who belong nowhere near the Senate. This race is an embarrassment on every level.

This is literally a contest telling voters, you are getting a crap sandwich either way, but we are letting you decide if you want it with or without corn.

Only thing certain about the PA Senate race is, regardless of who wins, PA and America loses... period.

So, regardless of who wins, PA gets a clown in the Senate?

Your brother’s observations are spot on.

If Gerald Ford’s kept his promises to the blue collar labor unions that were moving to the Republican Party beginning in 1972, he would have been re-elected.

Never, ever underestimate the amount of morons and leftard hacks who vote in this nation. Factor in the cheating and talk of a ‘red wave’ is rather untenable IMO. With that said, I’d love to be totally and happily wrong about it.
