1* Self-described socialists have won recent Democratic Party primary elections in several congressional districts. How concerned are you that these socialists could become members of Congress next year?

 

 

2* Do you agree or disagree with this statement: “Democratic socialists have said ‘crazy things’ that are ‘clearly anti-America and anti-Western civilization. They should form their own party’ rather than run for office as Democrats”?

 

 

3* Do you agree or disagree with this statement: "The Democratic Party in Washington, D.C., spends more time, effort and resources on able bodied capable people that don't work or wouldn't work than those that still are working trying to make a living"?
