Survey Says Republicans Are Madder and More Likely to Vote Than Dems



Republican voters are madder about the treatment of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his Senate confirmation process and are more likely to vote in November than Democrats, according to a new national survey.
“Sixty-two percent of Republicans are more likely to vote because of the Kavanaugh controversy, compared to 54 percent of Democrats and 46 percent of voters not affiliated with either major political party,” Rasmussen Reports said in making its results public Wednesday. (The party affiliation of the generic angry guy pictured above is unknown.)
Rasmussen also said Wednesday that voters are now evenly split between Democrats and Republicans on the generic ballot for the November 6 voting, with each party drawing 45 percent support.
Democrats have led the generic ballot, which measures which party’s candidates a voter plans to support, all of 2018, often by double digits.
The results suggest the electorate paid close attention to the Kavanaugh confirmation and didn’t like what they saw, especially after three women claimed late in the 11th hour of his confirmation process that he sexually assaulted them during high school and college freshman drinking parties. None of the witnesses the women said would corroborate their claims did so, and Kavanaugh passionately denied the allegations.
“Sixty-two percent of all voters are “angry” about the U.S. Senate’s treatment of Kavanaugh, with 42 percent who are “very angry.” Fifty-six percent are angry about how the Senate treated Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault, including 35 percent who are very angry, Rasmussen said.
The survey of 1,000 likely voters interviewed October 7-8 has a 3 percent, plus or minus, margin of error. Surveys of likely voters are routinely more accurate barometers of Election Day outcomes than those of registered voters.
The survey produced almost no good news for Democrats, who earlier this year expected to benefit from historical trends that show the party of first-term presidents almost always lose congressional seats in the first midterm election after their inauguration.
“Seventy-two percent of voters who are very angry about the treatment of Kavanaugh are more likely to vote in the upcoming elections. Among voters who are very angry about the treatment of Ford, 70 percent say they are more likely to vote,” the survey said.

“Seventy-two percent of voters who are very angry about the treatment of Kavanaugh are more likely to vote in the upcoming elections.”
Why are Republican voters "madder"? They hold all 3 branches of government. Why are they angry? If Republican voters cannot be happy with what they have won, with all the power they currently hold, then what makes Republican voters happy?
If you are not happy with the President you elected, if you are not happy with a Republican Congress, if you are not happy with a Republican Senate, if you are not happy with holding a majority of the State Houses across the country, then what makes you happy?
Do Republican voters want a king? Do they want to see all other points of view go away? Do they want a one 1 party only America?
If Republican voters are angry then they should look back at all the misery Republicans have handed them, especially when you see how many states are Red states.
Border states have voted predominantly for Republicans for years and years while they glad handed wealthy ranch donors and big agriculture donors to get cheap illegal labor, that is how it all got started.
Every single thing Republicans say they are now "angry" about is everything a Republican did or did not do creating horrible situations just to blame or own the "libs".
Republicans have not solved anything, our deficit is higher, our population is getting poorer no matter how much they work, jobs are still going overseas, factories and companies are still closing and Seniors are set to suffer a huge loss in Medicare and Social Security that Republicans have openly said they will attack if they retain power.
One party rule is not American, it is not healthy to leave out the voices of so many others and if getting everything you want by having Republicans holding all 3 branches of government, holding the majority of state houses, and you are happy with their polcies intending to continue to vote Republican, then where is all this "anger" coming from.
If your angry about winning and having all you want, then better start looking at the party you elected.
Didn't you watch the confirmation hearings? Are you aware that Republican's were assaulted yesterday? Did you see what was sent to Susan Collins?
I guess I should that the violent liberal mob, so thanks
Interesting -
Democrats are angry (rightfully so I would say) about some of the things accomplished by the current administration while the Republicans control the White House and both houses of Congress. They should be motivated to get out and vote and try to change that scenario - I think they will gain seats in the House and perhaps even gain control, but that they will lose at least one more seat in the Senate thus increasing the Republican control of the Senate.
Republicans are angry about the way Justice Kavanaugh was treated (I don't think they treated garland very well either) and worried about the changes they have made being undone and also want to maintain control of Congress to continue the agenda. At the very least they want to continue to appoint more conservative judges to the federal courts and should something happen to Justice RBG's health perhaps seat another justice on the SCOTUS and that will certainly motivate them to get and vote.
Independents and undecided but affiliated voters should be angry as hell that the legislative process and the country is such a mess and thus be motivated to get out and vote for whoever they think will facilitate change.
Rasmussen is usually pretty close with their surveys so it looks like the "Blue Wave" may be getting off to a slower start than some anticipated.

RIGHT-CENTER BIAS
These media sources are slightly to moderately conservative in bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes) to favor conservative causes.
I can believe that
It seems that all polls are loaded to some degree or another to influence how responders will likely answer but I agree that "center-right" is a good rating based on polls I have seen
