Democrats Are Underwater In Competitive Districts, According To This New Poll

A new poll of voters in competitive districts from Politico released this morning is full of bad news for the White House and House Democrats.

President Obama’s disapproval rating is perched at a high of 59% among voters who live in competitive House and Senate districts, with just 40% approving.

In those same districts, Republicans are ahead on the generic ballot by 7-points, a number that will start scaring vulnerable House Democrats.

Despite President Obama’s assertion that the debate over ObamaCare is “over,” 60% of these voters disagree, and nearly half favor an immediate repeal of the law. Nine out of 10 voters said ObamaCare was “very important” to how they will be voting in November.

When will House Democrats realize that following President Obama’s toxic liberal agenda lock-step will only lead them to defeat in November.

From Politico: 

President Barack Obama’s job approval slump and voters’ entrenched wariness of his health care law are dogging Democrats ahead of the 2014 midterm elections, and Republicans have captured a lead in the areas home to the year’s most competitive races, according to a new POLITICO poll.

In the congressional districts and states where the 2014 elections will actually be decided, likely voters said they would prefer to vote for a Republican over a Democrat by 7 points, 41 percent to 34 percent. A quarter of voters said they were unsure of their preference.

Among these critical voters, Obama’s job approval is a perilous 40 percent, and nearly half say they favor outright repeal of the Affordable Care Act. Sixty percent say they believe the debate over the law is not over, compared with 39 percent who echo the president’s position and say the ACA debate has effectively concluded.
