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

Posted on 09/23/2012 5:59:38 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. See History of Party Trends.

And maybe that is why Romney is up an average of 7.8% in the polls. See www.unskewedpolls.com
