Generic Ballot: Republicans 43%, Democrats 38%
Republicans now hold a five-point advantage over Democrats on the Generic Congressional Ballot for the short holiday week ending Friday, Dec. 30. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 43% of Likely U.S. Voters would vote for the Republican in their district’s congressional race if the election were held today, while 38% would choose the Democrat instead.
Republicans posted a smaller 43% to 40% lead the previous week and were ahead by the exact same margin the week before that.
