'Anger on their minds': NBC News poll finds sky-high interest and polarization ahead of midterms
NBC 'News' ^ | 10/23/22 | Mark Murray

Less than three weeks before Election Day, voter interest has reached an all-time high for a midterm election, with a majority of registered voters saying this election is “more important” to them than past midterms.

What’s more, 80% of Democrats and Republicans believe the political opposition poses a threat that, if not stopped, will destroy America as we know it.

And two-thirds of reliable Democratic and Republican voters say they’d still support their party’s political candidate, even if that person had a moral failing that wasn’t consistent with their own values.

Those are some of the major findings of a new national NBC News poll, which shows a competitive contest for November and offers positive signs for both parties.

On Democrats' side, President Joe Biden’s approval rating remains steady at 45%, while congressional preference continues to be relatively even (with 47% of registered voters preferring Democrats to control Congress, versus 46% who want Republicans in charge) and “threats to democracy” are voters’ No. 1 issue for the third straight NBC News poll.

For Republicans, the positive signs are that Biden’s approval among independents and swing-state voters is in the 30s and the low 40s, that the GOP once again holds the enthusiasm advantage and that Republicans lead in congressional preference among the smaller set of likely voters, 48% to 47%, although that’s well within the survey’s margin of error.

Democrats PROBABLY DO think there is a "THREAT to DEMOCRACY" because DEMOCRACY is 3 Wolves and 2 sheep deciding what's for dinner!!

The Democrats OWN the country now, and they do NOT want to lose any of their AWFUL POWER!

Yeah, and don’t forget the sharp turn to fascism taken by democrats in 2020 with the excuse of “covid.” The mask mandates. Firing people. J6 folks thrown into solitary. Raid of Trump’s house. Pillow guy’s smartphone seized. Permission slip given to BLM/antifa to burn, destroy, loot, rape and kill with the full blessing of democrats.
Much more.
I’ll remember in November.
