Rasmussen Reports ^ | Friday, July 10, 2026

Posted on 07/10/2026 1:51:56 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

After a wave of victories for avowed socialist candidates in Democratic primaries, half of the electorate is worried about how these candidates will affect Congress.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters are concerned that these socialists could become members of Congress next year, including 32% who are Very Concerned. Forty-four percent (44%) aren’t concerned about socialist candidates becoming members of Congress, including 23% who are Not At All Concerned.

Every Democrat is a socialist/Communist. The "moderate" kind doesn't exist anymore.

These polls (and we have learned not to believe in the accuracy of polls) are about feelings. The kind such as
“Do you think the tech sector will go up even higher in 2000 due to increase in web traffic and eyeballs for companies?” Yes.
“Mamdani is only one of many better funded possible nominees for Mayor. Do you agree he will be swamped by rivals and voted down in the race for the nomination?” Yes.

Feelings.

By not teaching the history of Communism, Socialism, ismism folks don’t realize the dead folks pile up when it comes into power and it always ends up in failure.

Right.

The Dems do NOT have a “civil war”, just a transition to cull the ones lagging behind the convoy heading to socialis/communist takeover.

Similar to the 1960s “Dixiecrat” Dems as a declining era for the overall Dem Party and the antiwar vs. Humphrey wings in 1968 not affecting the party in the long run until the young radicals became the aging ones today.

Hopefully they changed their underwear and socks but otherwise they are the same.

MSM will back every one of these nation killing commies as much any other rats if they are the nominees. Their Dem loyalty trumps everything. Like that creep in Main. As soon as he got under water in the polls he got a target on his back from the media.

>Feelings.

In this case, don't knock them, leverage them!!! Left uses its feelings, unmoored from reality, to gin up how many on its side show up to vote. Sure, they also cheat above their numbers but "feelings" are a big part of their recipe for electoral success. Hence they add referendums for abortion, weed and other emotional to them issues, to the ballots to bring up their vote. If our side, prone to voting apathy, becomes scared of the real implications of DSA, and shows up to block them, even if they're not enthused by our positives, it helps. It shouldn't be our only focus, but used properly it can help.

So, 50% not concerned. Guess they’ve never actually seen socoicommunism in person?

Well said.

I much admired Spiro Agenew’s carrying out of the Nixon push for law and order to energize voters.

We have to show how the bloody and horrifying crimes of the illegals and soft on crime judge and DA beneficiaries along with sikh and other deadly drivers are the fault of the Dems and Socialists.

Get the fear hyped up.

They have gone coast to coast so now they are Nationalist Socialists. If only we could come up with some sort of acronym for Nationalist Socialists.

A clickbait push poll. It has only 3 questions and no explanation of the polling demographics. They’re old if it’s a phone poll.

There us no floor for their lawlessness and ignorance. People are doubting their murderous nature. They would manifest it instantly if they could get away with it.

And with our failed legal establishment and corrupt judiciary, they soon might.

Fetterman is not all that different really. I heard him talking about Charlie Kirk. He said he disagreed with Charle about everything just like every other Democrat.
