"The poll of 1,999 registered voters, which was conducted online between February 25 and 26, found that 50% of Americans would vote for the Republican candidate in their congressional district and 50% would vote for the Democratic one if the midterms were held today. That marked an enormous improvement for the GOP, which trailed the Democrats 54%-46% on the same question last month."
"When presented with the following hypothetical campaign message from the GOP, 54% of respondents said they found it believable: Republicans say that they are returning responsibility to government by arresting criminals, closing the borders, keeping taxes low, and lowering energy costs."
"Sixty-one percent of Americans, though, indicated that they would be receptive to an overtly anti-Trump message from Democrats along the lines of: Suppose the Democrats say we need to stop Donald Trump. He is a runaway dictator, and we need a check on his power by returning the Congress to the Democrats."
A survey by Harvard's Center for American Political Studies, the Harris Poll, and HarrisX of 1,999 registered voters reveals Republicans have achieved parity with Democrats for the midterm elections. The GOP improved dramatically from trailing 54%-46% last month to now tied at 50%-50%. A Republican message emphasizing law and order, border security, low taxes, and energy costs resonated with 54% of respondents. A Democratic message focused on affordability and free services proved less credible at 48%. However, 61% of Americans found an anti-Trump message from Democrats persuasive. Trump's net approval rating improved from -6 to -3 over the same period.
