Marquette poll signals expanding Democratic edge as Trump’s approval sinks
TL;DR Summary
A new national Marquette Law School poll shows Democrats leading Republicans by 13 points on the generic congressional ballot for the 2026 midterms, driven by weak Trump approval (37%), stronger Democratic unity, and a sizable edge among independents on inflation and the economy; while the national climate favors Democrats, caveats include district dynamics, GOP fundraising strength, and the traditional midterm headwinds that could limit how far the lead translates into seats.
