Partisan Trends: Number of Republicans in America Reaches Record High
Rasmussen Reports ^ | September 1, 2012 | Rasmussen Reports

Posted on 09/23/2012 5:59:23 PM PDT by rightcoast

After falling for two straight months, the number of Americans who consider themselves Republicans jumped nearly three points in August.

During August, 37.6% of Americans considered themselves Republicans. That’s up from 34.9% in July and 35.4% in June. It’s also the largest number of Republicans ever recorded by Rasmussen Report since monthly tracking began in November 2002. The previous peak for the GOP was 37.3% in September 2004.

this is almost a month old and was spoken about when it first came out...with all the talk about the rats being energized since the convention, some places like gallup are even stating they have the advantage over the GOP at present time... i will be interested to see what these numbers look like on October 1st when they factor in September...

I hope they all show up and vote for Romney.

America cannot stand another 4 years of the peanut man’s black stepchild.

Right now, I think its Romney in a walk

Rock n Roll. If the left is now to the point where we are being blackmailed to vote for their people by the threat of riots, then so be it. Sooner is better than later.

Lance the boil.

BTW, none of the uber Libs I know even own firearms. They going to beat me over the head with their latte cups? It's a safe bet that my cup is *much* bigger than theirs.

This shows that the real sample is R+4.3 and the MSM is feeding us D+6 sh@! sandwiches as polls? If true Obummer is toast.

It does. Especially now that early voting has already started in several states.
