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 42%.   

  - Less than three months before the midterms, a majority of voters say the government has not done enough to protect election integrity.

  - Revelations that Dr. Anthony Fauci knew about potential miscarriage risks from COVID-19 vaccines is a serious scandal, according to two-thirds of voters.

  - Republicans in Congress are viewed as siding too much with President Donald Trump by a plurality of voters and, in a troubling signal for the party’s midterm election fate, the GOP is “underwater” in its favorability rating.

  - Candidates proposing socialism and other radical ideas face defeat by candidates who defend American traditions.

  - More voters think the Democratic Party is too far left than believe Republicans are too far right.

  - Proposals to eliminate children’s summer vacation for year-year round school are rejected by a majority of Americans.

  - Fewer Americans are optimistic about the stock market now, and less likely to expect higher stock prices than at any time since President Donald Trump returned to the White House.

  - Thirty-three percent (33%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
