Poll: Trump Crushes Bush and Walker Combined, Favorability Rockets To 52%

By John Nolte, Aug 03, 2015 Breitbart

A Monmouth University poll, also released Monday and with a somewhat larger sample size and smaller margin of error, shows Trump in first place, beating both Scott Walker and Jeb Bush combined.

The poll puts Trump in first place with 26% support. Second place Jeb Bush and third place Scott Walker sit at 12% and 11%, respectively.

That is what you call a blow out.

The remainder of the “top ten” includes Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)96%
 (6%), Mike Huckabee (6%), Ben Carson (5%), Chris Christie (4%), Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)93%
 (4%), Marco Rubio (4%), and John Kasich (3%). Carly Fiorina and Rick Perry each earn 2% and Bobby Jindal, Rick Santorum, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)47%
, George Pataki, and Jim Gilmore each get 1% or less. Another 10% of GOP voters say they still are unsure who they will support for the party’s nomination.

Poll: Race Relations Have Taken A Nosedive Under Obama

By Daniel Davis, July 25, 2015 Town Hall

President Obama will leave many poor legacies behind: a bad deal with Iran, a massive national debt, the rise of ISIS, and an army of liberal federal judges, just to name a few. But the one positive legacy we might have hoped for -- indeed, that seemed quite promising during his 2008 campaign -- has also taken a turn for the worst. Under the president's watch, race relations have soured on a national scale.

According to a New York Times/CBS News poll, six in ten Americans think that race relations are generally bad, and four in ten think they are getting worse. What's most striking is that majorities of both black and white respondents said race relations were poor.

For some perspective, race relations were considerably better under President George W. Bush.

Poll: Trump Surges To Big Lead In GOP Presidential Race

By  Dan Balz and Peyton M. Craighill,
July 20, 2015 Washington Post

Businessman Donald Trump surged into the lead for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, with almost twice the support of his closest rival, just as he ignited a new controversy after making disparaging remarks about Sen. John McCain’s Vietnam War service, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

Support for Trump fell sharply on the one night that voters were surveyed following those comments. Telephone interviewing for the poll began Thursday, and most calls were completed before the news about the remarks was widely reported.

Suffolk University/USA TODAY Poll Shows Trump On Top With GOP Voters Nationwide

July 14, 2015 Suffolk

Republican businessman Donald Trump is on a roll with likely GOP presidential primary voters, according to a Suffolk University/USA TODAY national poll.

Among voters who identify either as Republicans or independents and who plan to vote in their states’ Republican primaries or caucuses, 17 percent named Trump as their first choice for the GOP nomination in the 2016 presidential race.

Trump was followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (14 percent), Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (8 percent), Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (6 percent), Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (5 percent), retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson (4 percent), Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (4 percent), former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (4 percent) and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (3 percent). Receiving less than 2 percent each were former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, businesswoman Carly Fiorina, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, and former New York Gov. George Pataki.

Poll: 40% Think Police Make Unfair Judgments About Race

By Adam Carlson, Jun. 2, 2015, AJC.com

A new poll of more than 2,000 registered voters finds sizable segments of the population — across racial, political and generational lines — believe the police "routinely" make unfair judgments about people based on race/ethnicity, that race relations are as tense now as they were during the Civil Rights era, and that racism remains a major problem.

The survey, commissioned by Rare.us, polled a random group of 2,261 voters in the United States regarding current political and social issues.

It found sharp differences of opinion along racial and party lines, but not as much between younger and older Americans.

About 41 percent of all respondents said they believe police officers "routinely make unfair judgments about people based on race or ethnicity." About 55 percent said they trust the police to "do the right thing."

Obama Approval Settles Into Narrow Range in 2014

Frank Newport, Dec. 19, 2014, Gallup

President Barack Obama's job approval rating has settled down into a significantly smaller range in 2014 than it has in any of his five previous years in office. This year, through the week that ended Dec. 14, Obama's weekly approval averages have ranged between a high of 45% and a low of 40%. The only other year even close to that narrow range of weekly approval averages was 2010, when his weekly averages ranged over eight percentage points, from 51% to 43%. In each of the other four years, the range in his job approval fell between 11 and 18 points.

AP-Times Square Poll: Feeling Optimistic For 2015
Emily Swanson and Jennifer Agiesta, Dec. 26, 2014, AP

Americans are slightly more likely than they were a year ago to believe that the current year was better than the last for the United States— 30 percent say so this year, while 25 percent said so in 2013. On the other hand, Americans are more likely than in the 2013 poll to say this year was worse than last for the world as a whole, with 38 percent saying so now after 30 percent said so a year ago.

Under-40 Poll: Who Trusts The Police More?

Matt Purple, Sep. 18, 2014, Rare.us

Sixty percent of young voters said they trusted their local police department, while only 24 percent said they didn’t. A further 16 percent were unsure.

The question was asked as part of a first-of-its-kind Rare poll that surveyed only respondents under 40. The questions were tailored to chart trends in the opinions of younger voters.

Scott Walker Surges To 50-43% Lead Over Mary Burke

Gov. Scott Walker
By John Bolte, Oct. 29, 2014, Breitbart.com

Two weeks ago, among likely voters, the widely-respected Marquette Law School poll showed the gubernatorial race in Wisconsin all tied up at 47% among likely voters between Democrat Mary Burke and incumbent Republican Governor Scott Walker. A poll released today, the last before Tuesday's election, shows Walker surging to a 50-43% lead.

The magic 50% mark for an incumbent is a very big deal.

This almost perfectly matches Walker's favorability rating in this poll, which is 50-46%. Walker's job approval among likely voters sits at 52-46%. Among registered voters, it's 49-47%.

The poll's internals show Burke up only six with women while Walker leads by 22 points with men.

Among registered voters, a less reliable screen, Walker is up by only 1 point, 46-45%.

Momentum at this point in the race is crucial. Walker appears to be peaking at just the right time.

Obama Visits Maryland; Democrat Drops 9 Points?

By Matt K. Lewis, Oct. 27, 2014, Dailycaler.com

Things appear to be tightening in Maryland, where a poll leaked to The Daily Caller shows the gubernatorial race is “extremely close — only 2 points, 46 to 44, separate Democratic Lieutenant Governor Anthony Brown and Republican small businessman Larry Hogan.”

One should always be cognizant of outliers — and it’s worth noting that this survey was commissioned by the Maryland Republican Party. It’s also true that polls conducted by Gonzales this cycle have tended to show the race tighter than others — but as the Washington Post noted, Gonzales “does not have a partisan track record.”

With those caveats out of the way, let’s assume for a minute this survey is accurate. This would represent a nine point swing from a week ago, when, according to the RealClearPolitics poll average, Hogan was down by 11 points.

How could this be possible? I mean, what has happened in the last week? For one thing, President Obama — not welcome on the trail in red states — campaigned for Brown in Maryland, where crowds began streaming out during his speech, leaving empty bleachers behind.

CNN Poll: Voters Are Angry

By Mark Preston, Oct. 28, 2014, CNN.com
Washington (CNN) -- Nearly 7 in 10 Americans are angry at the direction the country is headed and 53% of Americans disapprove of President Barack Obama's job performance, two troubling signs for Democrats one week before the midterm elections, a new CNN/ORC International Poll shows.

Democrats are battling to try and save the Senate majority, while hoping to prevent more losses in the House, which the GOP controls by a 234 to 201 margin.

In the Senate, Republicans need a net gain of six seats, and several state polls in the past month of contested races show that Democrats are in danger of losing control of the majority, and thus Congress. Currently, Democrats control the Senate by a 55-45 margin with two of those seats held by independents that align themselves politically with Democrats.

NBC Poll: Republican Advantage Solidifies, Voters More Positive About GOP Campaigns

Carrie Dann, Oct. 26, 2014, NBCnews.com

With just nine days to go until Election Day, Republicans' national lead appears to be crystallizing, with voters still preferring a GOP-led Congress and viewing Republican campaigns significantly less negatively than those of Democrats.

According to a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Annenberg poll, a majority of likely voters - 52 percent - say they would like to see Capitol Hill controlled by Republicans, compared to 41 percent who favor the president's party. (For registered voters, it's 46 percent GOP and 42 percent Democrat-controlled.)

Chicago Poll: Rahm Less Popular Than Rush Hr Traffic

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel
Source:  www.wizbangblog.com
By Craig Dellimore, Oct. 7, 2014, Chicago.cbslocal.com

CHICAGO (CBS) – As he ramps up his campaign for mayor, Ald. Bob Fioretti (2nd) has released a new poll suggesting Mayor Rahm Emanuel is more unpopular in Chicago than rush hour traffic or the Fox News Channel.

WBBM Newsradio Political Editor Craig Dellimore reports, with tongue planted firmly in cheek, Fioretti released results of a Hamilton Campaigns poll he commissioned to gauge likely Chicago voters’ opinions of the current mayor, and some other famously unpopular things in Chicago: traffic on the Eisenhower Expressway, Fox News, and the Green Bay Packers.

With Emanuel’s first term as mayor nearly done, the poll showed he has a higher unfavorable rating in Chicago than both Fox News and rush hour traffic on the Eisenhower.

Of the 500 likely voters questioned for the poll 52 percent had a somewhat unfavorable or very unfavorable opinion of Emanuel. Only 49 percent had a somewhat or very unfavorable opinion of morning traffic on the Eisenhower, and 51 percent had a somewhat or very unfavorable opinion of Fox News.

Poll: Most See Obama As A Failure

President Barack Obama
Source:  www.businessinsider.com
By Justin Sink, Oct. 7, 2014, Thehill.com

A clear majority of Americans describe President Obama's tenure as a "failure" according to a new poll released Monday.

The survey from IBD/TIPP indicates that 53 percent of adults in the United States now characterize Obama's presidency as a "failure," while 41 percent chalk it up as a success. Half of the people who live in states won by Obama see his tenure negatively, as do 59 percent of those aged 25-44 years old.

Some of the key groups remain solid in their support of the president, though. More than three-quarters of voters aged 18-24 see Obama's presidency as a success, as do 54 percent of single women.

By contrast, only 32 percent of married women describe Obama as a success while 58 percent of independents see him as a failure.

The survey also found that only 43 percent of U.S. adults say they would vote for Obama, who has been besieged by international crises, were a presidential election held today. Some 49 percent would favor 2012 Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

The slide in approval of the president seems to be primarily driven by concern over his economic record. While three in four Americans say they place a "high importance" on the economy and jobs when evaluating candidates, just 31 percent say Obama is doing a good job at growing the economy.

At a speech last week at Northwestern University, Obama looked to reverse those perceptions, arguing it was "indisputable that our economy is stronger today than it was when I took office." Obama said progress "has been hard, but it has been steady, and it is real."

Poll: Voters Punt On NFL Scandals, WBUR Poll 

Poll Source:  www.scribid.com
By Steve Kozela, Oct. 2, 2014, Wbur.org

Political campaigns are used to football interfering with campaign season; good luck getting a voter to answer either the door or the phone when the Patriots are on. But this year the NFL — or more specifically, the league’s handling of alleged domestic violence by players — is impacting the political campaign in another way.

Almost two-thirds of the state’s likely voters (64 percent) call themselves football fans, according to the latest WBUR tracking poll, conducted Sept. 24-27. The vast majority (84 percent) of voters have been following the domestic violence story very or somewhat closely. And by a 3-to-1 margin, voters think the NFL has bungled the job. Just 20 percent approve of the NFL’s handling of the issue, compared to 61 percent who disapprove.

With numbers that high, it’s not surprising that the issue made its way into the Massachusetts governor’s race. The major party candidates initially differed on whether NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell should resign over the the league’s handling of Baltimore Ravens player Ray Rice, who was shown on a hotel surveillance video knocking his then-fiancee unconscious in an elevator. Republican candidate Charlie Baker equivocated initially but then later called for Goodell’s resignation, as Democrats and women’s groups pounced.

Fox Poll: Voters Reveal Which State they Want Kicked Out Of The Union

By Dana Blanton, Oct. 2, 2014, Foxnews.com

There’s lots of talk about it. Last month, Scotland voted against it. In 2013, some residents in California, Colorado and Maryland signed petitions to do it. And Texas has toyed with the idea off and on for years. What is “it”?

Secession!

But it’s a lot more talk than anything else, according to a Fox News national poll that asked voters if they would support their state splitting off from the United States. Just nine percent said they would.

CLICK HERE TO READ THE POLL RESULTS

The poll also gave people another option: What if you could boot other states out of the union?

Nearly twice as many -- 17 percent -- liked that idea.

Which state would be the first voted out? California. Of the voters willing to ditch a state or two, 53 percent pick the Golden State.

Next out the door is New York (25 percent), followed by Texas (20 percent) and Florida (11 percent). Respondents were allowed to name multiple states they wanted out of the union.

Democratic pollster Chris Anderson says voters who want to kick out a state appear to have presidential politics in mind.

“The top four states targeted for expulsion,” he observed, “are also the four most electorally rich states in the country.” Anderson conducts the Fox News poll with Republican pollster Daron Shaw, who for his part approvingly noted the first two states on the chopping block are solid blue.

One reason more Democratic states end up on the chopping block is Republicans (21 percent) are more likely than Democrats (13 percent) to want to vote a state out of the union.

WSJ: Poll Shows Americans Expect U.S. To Send Troops To Fight Islamic State

By Reid Epstein, Sept. 28, 2014, WJS.com

Nearly three-quarters of Americans don’t believe President Barack Obama’s assertion that the country won’t use ground troops to fight the militant group Islamic State in Iraq or Syria, the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News/Annenberg survey finds.

The poll shows a substantial lack of trust in Mr. Obama’s repeated assertions that American military efforts will be limited to airstrikes and other efforts that don’t include ground troops. Some 72% of registered voters surveyed said U.S. ground troops eventually will be deployed against Islamic State’s fighters. Only 20% said they believe the U.S. won’t end up using military ground forces.

The Obama administration has cautioned that the battle against Islamic State won’t be won quickly. It has said it will proceed with an international coalition and that the U.S. won’t commit ground troops to combat.

“I want to be clear: The American forces that have been deployed to Iraq do not and won’t have a combat mission,” Mr. Obama said Sept. 17. “As your commander in chief, I won’t commit you and the rest of our armed forces to fighting another ground war in Iraq.”

Cal Poll: Obamacare Support Sliding, Gov Brown, Water-Bond Up Big

The Affordable Care Act continues to divide Californians, who remain skeptical four years after its passage despite the state’s relatively smooth launch in which more than 1.2 million people enrolled in health insurance coverage.

A new survey released late Tuesday found some 42 percent of state residents generally view the law favorably, while 46 percent harbor unfavorable opinions. Support is down somewhat since May, before a wave of targeted TV ads began in a handful of competitive congressional districts.

Democrats view the law positively while an overwhelming majority of Republicans (80 percent) see it unfavorably. Of the 1 in 5 Californians who say that they were aided by the law, 31 percent say that it allowed them or a family member to obtain or retain health care.Meanwhile, of the 1 in 5 who said they have been harmed by the law, more than half reported it led to higher costs while about 20 percent say it made it more difficult to get coverage.

The survey, by the Public Policy Institute of California, also determined likely voter sentiment on other major issues:

• Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown leads Republican Neel Kashkari by 21 percentage points in the race for governor, with the challenger failing to alter the dynamic after their only scheduled debate. Brown, running for a historic fourth term, leads Kashkari 54 percent to 33 percent among likely voters with fewer than 50 days before the general election.

Juan Williams: Obama’s October Surprise

Juan Williams / Fox News
By Juan Williams, Sept. 22, 2014, Thehill.com

Get ready for bombs bursting in air and this election’s October Surprise – President Obama’s air strikes to “degrade and ultimately destroy” ISIS.

Last week a Fox News poll identified a phenomenon that my friend, pollster Dana Blanton, dubbed “The ISIS effect.”

“Equal numbers of voters now say terrorism is the most important issue to their vote as say the economy – 41 percent say each will be ‘extremely’ important in their decision,” Blanton wrote. She later noted “four years ago [in the 2010 midterms dominated by Republicans], 57 percent said the economy would be ‘extremely’ important while 41 percent said terrorism.”

Initially political fall-out from the murders of two Americans and one British citizen, all beheaded by ISIS, seemed to be another drag on President Obama’s already mediocre approval rating. The president was heavily criticized for failing to take the fight to ISIS before their barbaric acts and then for the lack of a clear strategy to defeat them.

But in the last week polls show public opinion shifting in the president’s favor.

A Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll reported 62 percent of voters supported “the decision President Obama made when it comes to taking action against ISIS in Iraq and Syria.”

Pew polling last week found support for the president’s plan is coming from both sides of the political spectrum. As Pew described it: “And in a rare display of bipartisanship, majorities of both Republicans [64 percent] and Democrats [60 percent] approve of the president’s plan.”

A Rasmussen poll similarly found 66 percent of likely U.S. voters support President Obama’s plan to use airstrikes in Iraq and Syria against ISIS.

ABC, CBS Skip Polls Showing Record Lows for Obama on Leadership, Foreign Policy

 By Curtis Houck, Sept. 9, 2014, Newsbusters.org

Tuesday evening marked a return to ignoring President Obama’s poll numbers for ABC News as its evening newscast, World News Tonight with David Muir, failed to report on the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll and its findings. Between its morning and evening newscasts, ABC News refused to report on their poll, which found that just 43 percent of Americans say the President “is a strong leader,” which is the lowest since he became President. Meanwhile, 55 percent of Americans say that he is not “a strong leader,” which is a new career low for him in this poll.
