The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that, if the Congressional Election were held today, 46% of American voters say they would vote for the Democrat in their district and 35% would opt for the Republican. That eleven point advantage for Nancy Pelosi’s party is little changed from a month ago. It’s the fourth straight month Nancy Pelosi’s Party has enjoyed a double-digit lead.
The new results may put another smile on the Speaker’s face. A month ago, at a lunch meeting with reporters, she admitted to being unhappy with the Congressional approval ratings. However, the first woman elected Speaker of the House added "I'm very pleased with the Democratic numbers. Today the Rasmussen numbers were the third time that we were double-digit ahead in the generic… and the third month in a row we were in the high 40s."
Democrats continue to enjoy a huge lead among young voters—57% for the Democrats to 27% for the GOP. Pelosi’s party also has a twenty-two point lead among women, but trail by three among men.
The parties evenly divide the votes of white Americans and senior citizens. Liberal voters are more supportive of Democrats than conservatives are of the Republican Party.
