"By the numbers: In the PRRI poll, taken in partnership with the Brookings Institution, 62% say the country is going the wrong direction, led by Democrats (92%) and independents (71%). 24% of Republicans said the nation was heading in the wrong direction, the poll found. The 68-point gap between Republicans and Democrats on that question is the widest ever recorded in PRRI's 16 years of surveys on religion and politics."
"The poll of 5,543 adults (age 18+) was conducted online Aug. 15 to Sept. 8, with a margin of sampling error of ±1.79 percentage points. The findings are similar to other major polls: An AP-NORC poll out this week found 69% of Americans thought the nation was headed in the wrong direction and 30% in the right direction. A Gallup Poll last month found 67% of Americans are dissatisfied with how things are going in the U.S., and 29% are satisfied."
An online survey of 5,543 adults conducted Aug. 15 to Sept. 8 found 62% say the country is going the wrong direction. Democrats registered 92% and independents 71% on that view, while 24% of Republicans said the nation was heading in the wrong direction, producing a 68-point partisan gap—the widest in 16 years of PRRI surveys. Historical comparison shows higher Republican dissatisfaction during the end of the previous presidency. Close to two-thirds of political independents say the administration has gone too far on many policies. Six in 10 Americans say race relations have mostly worsened this year, and six in 10 say cuts to federal health-care funding have gone too far.
