An InsiderAdvantage national survey of 600 Republican registered voters indicates that a vast majority want their Republican Senators and Representatives to vote in unison to pass President Trump’s appointees and agenda. The survey, conducted January 20, has a margin of error of 4%.
Results:
What would you tell your Republican U.S. Senator or Congressman if you were to speak to them today?
“I want you to vote in unison to help pass President Trump’s appointees and his legislative agenda”: 70%
“I want you to vote however you like, even if it does not support President Trump’s nominees or his legislative agenda”: 19%
Undecided: 11%
InsiderAdvantage pollster Matt Towery: Every demographic in the poll favored support for Trump in unison. This pretty much tracks Republican primaries where candidates have openly challenged or have gone their separate way from the president. Most of those races don’t end well for those candidates, and with Trump at record high approval ratings, I expect the support for “in unison” votes by Republican legislators to increase even more.
