Shocking New Poll Numbers

The upcoming United States midterm elections look completely disastrous for Republicans. New polls show Democrats gaining massive ground across key Senate battlegrounds. The Democratic party currently leads in five crucial Republican-held states. The latest New York Times and Siena University polls reveal shocking numbers. Democratic candidates are successfully beating Republicans in Texas, Kansas, Maine, and Ohio. They also hold a surprising lead in the state of Alaska. The Senate race in Iowa currently remains a dead tie. Democrats also comfortably lead in Michigan right now.

Voters Reject Donald Trump

Voters are clearly expressing massive dissatisfaction with President Donald Trump. His national approval rating sits at a dismal 38 percent currently. A massive 60 percent of Americans completely disapprove of his performance. The rising cost of living remains the biggest issue motivating angry voters. Democrats hold a huge nine-point advantage over Republicans regarding the economy. Voters simply trust Democrats more to fix their daily financial struggles. Democrats must flip at least four Republican seats to control the Senate.

A Brutal Political Landscape

This previously looked impossible because these states traditionally vote Republican. However, Trump recently won five of these exact states by double digits. His crumbling popularity now drags down local Republican candidates heavily. All 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats face elections on November 3. Democrats desperately need a net gain of three seats in the House. They need 51 seats total to secure a strict Senate majority. Some undecided voters could still swing the final election results. Late deciders currently favor the Republican party by nine percentage points.
