87% of republicans feel your country is headed in the wrong direction &
72% of non affiliated voters feel this way too.
There is a surprising 45% of democrats who feel your country is headed the wrong way. Statistically this would represents more than 1/2 in some electorates.
In statistical terms this would be considered a landslide against the current direction!!!
It would be interesting to see the data electorate by electorate, though with such high numbers it would not be at all likely to be an opposite result in marginal electorates. The data is reported with a 3% error at a 95% confidence level, That is very accurate by any ones standard.
You may wish to start planning your party for next year !!!
