Americans are more likely to expect major changes in Washington after these elections than they were prior to the 1994 elections. /poll/144152/Record-Midterm-Enthusiasm-Voters-Head-Polls.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication /poll/144152/Record-Midterm-Enthusiasm-Voters-Head-Polls.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication Tue, 02 Nov 2010 15:15:00 GMT Two-thirds of Republicans, compared with barely half of Democrats, say the issue of which party controls Congress matters a great deal to them -- perhaps a key reason that Republicans are more motivated than Democrats to vote this year. /poll/144143/Control-Congress-Matters-Tea-Partiers-Republicans.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication /poll/144143/Control-Congress-Matters-Tea-Partiers-Republicans.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication Mon, 01 Nov 2010 19:00:00 GMT Likely voters are more apt to be using their vote to send a message that they oppose the president than support him. Also, voters backing GOP candidates are more likely than those backing Democrats to be casting their vote against the opposing candidate. These and other patterns conform with prior midterms in which power changed hands. /poll/144137/Obama-National-Issues-Play-Large-Role-Voter-Preferences.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication /poll/144137/Obama-National-Issues-Play-Large-Role-Voter-Preferences.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication Mon, 01 Nov 2010 08:00:00 GMT The final USA Today/童颜视频 measure of Americans' voting intentions for Congress shows Republicans continuing to hold a substantial lead over Democrats among likely voters, large enough to suggest that regardless of turnout, the Republicans will win more than the 40 seats needed to give them the majority in the U.S. House. /poll/144125/Republicans-Appear-Poised-Win-Big-Tuesday.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication /poll/144125/Republicans-Appear-Poised-Win-Big-Tuesday.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication Mon, 01 Nov 2010 01:00:00 GMT Americans are slightly less satisfied with the way local congressional candidates are conducting their campaigns in 2010 than in any of the past four midterm election years. Still, more Americans are satisfied than dissatisfied. Nearly half describe most of the political commercials they have seen as "very" or "extremely negative." /poll/144122/Slightly-Fewer-Satisfied-Conduct-Campaigns-2010.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication /poll/144122/Slightly-Fewer-Satisfied-Conduct-Campaigns-2010.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication Fri, 29 Oct 2010 19:15:00 GMT Despite the 111th Congress' passage of major legislation, including healthcare, 37% of Americans say it has accomplished less this year than in the past few years, and a smaller 23% say it has accomplished more. Democrats are the most positive about Congress' accomplishments, but less than half say it has done more than usual. /poll/144089/One-Say-Congress-Accomplished-Usual-Year.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication /poll/144089/One-Say-Congress-Accomplished-Usual-Year.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication Fri, 29 Oct 2010 08:00:00 GMT About one in five likely voters have yet to make a firm commitment in their choice for Congress, a lower percentage than in prior midterm elections. Voters who currently support the Republican candidate are somewhat more firm in their commitment than those supporting the Democrat. /poll/144065/Fewer-Swing-Voters-2010-Prior-Midterm-Years.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication /poll/144065/Fewer-Swing-Voters-2010-Prior-Midterm-Years.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=syndication Thu, 28 Oct 2010 08:00:00 GMT
