A national poll by Marist University for NPR and PBS has good news and bad news for Democrats.
First the good news:
· 55% of American voters want Democrats to control Congress compared to 41% for Republicans – a huge margin historically. One year ago, it was 48%-48%.
· Independents, who are critical to our success, favor Democrats by 33 points, 61% to 28%.
· 73% of Independents blame Trump and Congressional Republicans for the government shutdown; only 27% blame Congressional Democrats.
· 63% of Independents see Democrats as more honest than dishonest, while 54% see Republicans as more dishonest than honest.
Now the bad news:
· 65% of voters have little or no confidence in the Republican Party, but 71% have little or no confidence in the Democratic Party.
The poll was taken November 10-13, exactly when Senate Democrats in Washington voted to end the government shutdown, abandoning their demand to continue tax credits for Obamacare.
The messages couldn’t be clearer.
1. When we Democrats promise something, like protecting healthcare, we have to deliver.
2. We can't control what happens in Washington, but we can control what happens here in Carlisle. So we need to step up our ground game by bringing our message to our neighbors.
Engage. Listen. Respond. Repeat.
