Midterm Polling Gives Senate Republicans a Path to Victory
Amy Curtis / Townhall Tipsheet
With the midterms approaching, Republicans are zeroing in on a targeted
strategy to win back swing voters and Trump voters who don’t typically
turn out in off-year elections. Those voters will be critical to
maintaining a Republican majority in the Senate next year.
That message centers on the economy and cost of living, and the
National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) says new polling,
exclusively provided to Townhall, shows a clear path to rebuilding a
winning coalition after President Trump's 2024 win.
That polling
shows the cost of living is the overwhelming issue driving the midterms,
with 92 percent of swing voters and 85 percent of infrequent Trump
voters concerned about it. Of the cost-of-living issues, three major
areas stand out: prescription drug prices, housing costs, and Social
Security taxes.
Majorities in both groups say they are more likely
to support candidates who "crack down" on Big Pharma to stop
skyrocketing drug costs, prohibit investment firms and large
corporations from purchasing residential housing and driving up costs,
and eliminate taxes on Social Security. Read more, and see X here.
