A new poll shows Democrats with a big lead on one of the most important questions going into the midterms next year.
According to an NPR/PBS News/Marist survey conducted Nov. 10-13, 55% of voters said they’d pick a Democratic candidate in their district if the election were held today, compared with 41% who said the same about a Republican candidate.
That’s a 14-point advantage and the largest that Democrats have had in a Marist poll since 2017, according to NPR.
The 2017 survey was conducted during the first year of Trump’s first term as voters grappled with the chaotic start of his presidency and the deluge of actions he took on immigration, climate and tax policy.
The following year, Democrats picked up roughly 40 seats in the House as voters turned out to express their support for the party’s focus on health care and their opposition to Trump.
