I wouldn’t exactly call this a big win, more like independents turning on the Dems.
Biden’s loss of popularity, primarily among independents, is likely a factor in the lower favorable ratings of his party. The party’s favorable image is also down mostly among independents, from 48% in January to 35% in the current poll…
In January, 78% of Republicans, 35% of independents and 10% of Democrats held a favorable opinion of the Republican Party. In the latest poll, the figures are 83% among Republicans, 38% among independents and 7% among Democrats.
The gap isn’t wide, nonetheless, the GOP numbers are slightly up, the Dem numbers are down. And down hard.
This doesn’t bode well for the Dem midterm prospects.
