In my Nov. 1 column, I looked at the presidential election through the lens of the old children's radio show "Let's Pretend" -- examining how things would look if it turned out that Donald Trump ends up winning.
When tracking President Obama’s job approval on a daily basis, people sometimes get so caught up in the day-to-day fluctuations that they miss the bigger picture. To look at the longer-term trends, Rasmussen Reports compiles the numbers on a full-month basis, and the results can be seen in the graphics below.
Utah appears to have moved safely into Republican Donald Trump’s column with less than a week to go until Election Day.
FBI Director James Comey dropped a political bombshell last week when he publicly notified Congress that the FBI is reopening its criminal investigation of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified material while secretary of State. President Obama, Clinton and legislators in both parties have criticized Comey's timing, but most voters approve of what he did.
Hillary Clinton has picked an awful time to hit one of the rough patches that has plagued her throughout the campaign. Now with just days to go until Election Day, there’s added uncertainty about the outcome. But while she may not be on the brink of an Electoral College win the size of Barack Obama’s in 2008 or even 2012, her position as the clear frontrunner in this race endures.
It's another presidential election cycle, and voters are more stressed at family and friends.
Open enrollment for 2017 under President Obama’s health care law began yesterday, but insurance premiums are expected to skyrocket in many parts of the country. Voters overwhelmingly favor changes in Obamacare, with more voters than ever calling for its outright repeal.
The presidency isn't the only choice next week. There are more issues than "Who's worse, Trump or Clinton?"
Behold, the Revenge of The Weiner.
I keep hearing that Hillary Clinton would be "Obama's third term." The math is wrong. Barack Obama served the Clinton crime family's third and fourth term. Electing Hillary would doom America to a fifth Clinton White House.
Hillary Clinton is the first woman presidential nominee of a major U.S. political party, but most voters, including the vast majority of women, insist that won’t make a difference when they cast their vote.
The political left keeps announcing, as if it is a new breakthrough discovery of theirs, that life is unfair.
After posting Friday's column, "A Presidency from Hell," about the investigations a President Hillary Clinton would face, by afternoon it was clear I had understated the gravity of the situation.
When I was a child, there was a Saturday morning radio program called "Let's Pretend." It used words and sounds to encourage young children to paint pictures in their heads of make-believe worlds.
For the second week in a row, 31% of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey for the week ending October 27.
Halloween still doesn’t register as an important holiday for most Americans, but they also continue to say adults are just as welcome to get in on the fun.
Most voters consider the allegations of sexual harassment by multiple women against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump important to their vote, but most also say the charges haven't affected how they will vote.
If you lean left, the only presidential candidate who shares your values is Dr. Jill Stein. But she can't win. The two major parties have left -- sorry for the pun -- you and your concerns high and dry.
What if we had an election, and it didn’t make any difference? That seems to be the concern of many voters.
President Obama has received higher approval ratings in his final year than he has for most of his presidency. While most voters expect Hillary Clinton to continue many of his policies if she wins, a sizable majority of her current supporters would vote for Obama instead if the rules allowed it.
