57% Would Like to Replace Entire Congress
From Rasmussen Reports
If they could vote to keep or replace the entire Congress, just 25% of voters nationwide would keep the current batch of legislators.
It appears that the American voter has tired of those in government who would be their masters.
If you’re concerned about the paragraph that says the number hasn’t changed since last year, read a little further and find:
Today, 70% of those not affiliated with either major party would vote to replace all of the elected politicians in the House and Senate. That’s up from 62% last year.
That’s not a good sign for the party in power.
While I’m encouraged by this poll I take it with a bit of suspicion. Typically, what you find when you pull back the covers a bit, is that while a majority want to replace the whole Congress, they usually expect it to be the Congress except for their particular elected one. In other words, “Mine’s fine. It’s all you guys that have this screwed up!” While I have that sentiment about mine, I’d be willing to toss him into the pile of chaff if everyone would agree to do the same.
