Poll: GOP Voters Unhappy With Leaders
Politico reports:
Fifty-seven percent of Republican voters would get rid of Republican leaders if the GOP wins back Congress, including House Minority Leader John Boehner and Mitch McConnell, according to a Public Policy Polling survey.
The poll reflects the ongoing dissatisfaction that Republican voters have with the establishment GOP in Washington -- a trend also reflected in a series of upsets of Republican incumbents throughout the country.
According to the PPP poll, 21 percent are not sure about whether to keep the current GOP congressional leaders, and the same percentage wants to keep the leadership intact.
Of the 419 national Republican primary voters polled in mid September, just 33 percent want Boehner to become speaker, 34 percent want someone else and 33 percent aren’t sure.
Twenty-seven percent want McConnell as the majority leader, should Republicans regain the Senate – 33 percent want someone else and 40 percent aren’t sure.
