A new Democrat survey of working-class white voters in key 2018 districts has Democrats panicking. While the media remains hyper-focused on Russia and “palace intrigue,” the voters that carried President Trump to victory in November largely approve of the job he and Congressional Republicans are doing.
Key findings of the “White Working Class Voter Project”:
• By a staggering 35-point margin, Republicans are believed to be more likely to “help improve the economy and create jobs” than Democrats
• Democrats trail on the initial Congressional ballot by 10 points (43% - 33%)
• Republicans are doing better with those under the age of 60 (45 % - 32%) than those over the age of 60 (42% - 34%)
• A majority approve of the job President Trump is doing (52% - 44%)
