Poll: Democrats Have HUGE Lead In Pre-Election Favorability

Frank Camp

According to a new poll from NBC News/Wall Street Journal, the Democratic Party has the “largest advantage in congressional preference in nine years,” with an 11 point lead ahead of Republicans (50% to 39%).

The last two times the Democratic Party had such large advantages, they took the House and Senate (2006), and won the presidential election (2008). In 2010, when Republicans won back control of the House, the Democrats were in the negative (-5), and in 2014, when Republicans took back the Senate, Democrats enjoyed only a one point advantage.
