With President Donald Trump at record unpopularity, Republicans are facing an even bleaker midterm political landscape than they did eight years ago, a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS finds.
Nationally, voters say they prefer Democratic candidates over Republicans by an eight-point margin – slightly more modest than their 12-point advantage in CNN’s September polling ahead of the 2018 midterms in Trump’s first presidency.
CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten and CNN political director David Chalian pore through the new numbers, plus reaction from CNN’s Jake Tapper and Audie Cornish’s CNN This Morning “group chat.”
