Poll: GOP Now Well-Positioned To Retake Congress

The 2022 midterm elections are now 263 days away, and Republicans have a 13-point lead in their bid to recapture control of Congress.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that, if the elections for Congress were held today, 50% of likely U.S. voters would vote for the Republican candidate, while 37% would vote for the Democrat. Just four percent (4%) would vote for some other candidate, but another nine percent (9%) are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Republicans have added four points to their congressional advantage since January, when they led 48%-39%. The current 13-point GOP lead matches the November survey, but Democrats are now one point lower than they were in November.
