With less than two weeks until the midterm elections, 11% of voters remain undecided in how they plan to vote, according to a new Politico/Morning Consult poll.
The survey indicates that Republicans may have an edge over those who remain undecided, with 83% stating that they think the country “is on the wrong track,” 62% disapproving of President Joe Biden’s job performance, and 60% stating they view Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) in an unfavorable light.
While Democrats didn’t receive high marks in the poll, just 8% said they are “extremely excited” about the midterm elections, with 25% stating that they are not enthusiastic about voting, drawing voter turnout into question.
