What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls

In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:

  - President Trump ended the polling week on Friday with a daily job approval of 47%.

  - Concerns remain high that electronic voting machines could be “hacked” remotely, and most Republican voters still suspect the 2020 election was stolen.

  - Less than a year before the next congressional elections, the Democratic Party maintains a lead over Republicans in the battle to control the House of Representatives.

  - The 2028 presidential primaries are still more than two years away, but Vice President J.D. Vance has an overwhelming early lead over other potential Republican contenders

  - The president earned a monthly job approval of 46% in November, down two points from October. 

  - President Donald Trump’s suggestion of refunding part of tariff revenue to taxpayers is a good idea, most voters believe. 

  - Nearly two-thirds of Americans plan to decorate their homes for the holidays, and most have already gotten started.

  - A majority of Americans expect to do at least half their holiday gift shopping online this year.

  - Forty percent (40%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
