发帖数: 61690 | 1 Forty-five percent give a favorable rating to the Republican Party in a new
poll by Gallup, the highest number hit by the GOP in the poll since 2011.
It's also a tick up from the 44 percent polled who view the Democratic Party
favorably.
While it's only a one-point difference, it comes weeks before the Midterm
elections and represents a swing from previous polls in which more Americans
gave a favorable opinion of Democrats compared to Republicans.
"No matter how much or how little party favorability affects elections, the
fact that Republicans are more likely to view their party favorably than a
year ago can be considered a positive indicator for the party, particularly
if a more positive image boosts Republican turnout," Gallup wrote.
The 45 percent figure is a high watermark for the GOP since January 2011,
when 47 percent said they viewed the GOP favorably. That was months after a
midterm when the GOP swept back to power in the House. |
