Recent polling has some good news for the conservative cause: More Americans identify as conservative than as liberal.

Gallup’s 2018 tracking polls in all 50 U.S. states asked respondents to self-identify as either liberal, conservative or moderate.

The aggregated results, which were released Friday, show that more respondents identified as liberal than as conservative in only six states. Gallup previously reported that on a national level, conservatives outnumbered liberals 35 percent to 26 percent in 2018.

The states where the number of self-identified liberal residents exceeded the number of conservatives were Hawaii, New Hampshire, New York, Massachusetts, Vermont and Washington.

Gallup’s 2018 survey results reveal a slight change from their 2017 poll, which showed nine states where self-identified liberals outnumbered conservatives.

The salivating media and the dems are a mutual admiration society, and they would have of think that the world revolves around them, their liberalism, and now, their socialism.

But “still waters run deep”...there’s still an undercurrent out there that loves America and wants to make her great again.

They just need to stop letting the left define them.

Strange how ballot boxes don’t agree with these findings, isn’t it? Democrats win through voter fraud. It’s been true since the days of LBJ in Texas and Bill Daley in Chicago, who teamed up to give the presidency to JFK through voter fraud in South Texas and Chicago.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say the rats stuffed the ballot boxes.

They’ve had years of help from MSM who create the illusion that there are only a few of us so nobody questions anything.

Hardcore leftists like the ones you find in California don’t identify themselves as “liberal.” They are expressly hostile to liberalism.

You’re prolly right. But no one stops them and it appears they’re pretty good at it now.

One reason we lost the House was that a lot of Republicans chose to retire. And then there’s the ballot harvesting that cost us a few seats in California.
