Rasmussen - Voters Now Trust Republicans More On All 10 Key Issues

Rasmussen Reports ^

Voters now trust Republicans more than Democrats on all 10 of the important issues regularly tracked by Rasmussen Reports.

The GOP has consistently been trusted on most issues for months now, but in July they held the lead on only nine of the key issues.

Republicans lead Democrats 47% to 39% on the economy, which remains the most important issue to voters. Those numbers are nearly identical to those found in June. Republicans have held the advantage on the economy since May of last year.

But for the first time in months, Republicans now hold a slight edge on the issues of government ethics and corruption, 40% to 38%. Voters have been mostly undecided for the past several months on which party to trust more on this issue, but Democrats have held small leads since February. Still, more than one-in-five voters (22%) are still not sure which party to trust more on ethics issues.

Government ethics and corruption have been second only to the economy in terms of importance to voters over the past year.

I couldn't agree with you more. They're going to pull something, because they're not going to just let go of the power they've wanted so badly for years. It's up to us, conservatives, to make sure they don't get away with it.

Scouts out! Cavalry Ho!

Don’t rule out George Soros buying enough voters for the Dems to win.

The unions have already thrown wads of cash into the elections; if they do it this time they’ll be throwing good money after bad. The strong likelihood is that these public employee pension funds will go bankrupt as will many of the trades. The pensioners are likely to see both caps and significant payout reductions, along with COLA reductions. There is just no way around it.
