What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls - Week Ending November 26, 2022
In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:
- President Biden ended the polling week with a daily job approval of 44%.
- Most Americans will spend this Thanksgiving Day at home with family and friends.
- Republican congressional leaders remain unpopular, even with their own party’s voters, who overwhelmingly want to get rid of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
- Voters overwhelmingly agree with Nancy Pelosi’s decision to step down from her position as leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives.
- Most voters are content with the results of the midterm elections, but are divided over why Republicans fell short of their “red wave” expectations.
- The number of Americans who expect to visit stores to take advantage of Black Friday prices is up this year, but most of them don’t plan to spend more on holiday gift shopping.
- The Rasmussen Reports Immigration Index for the week of November 13-17, 2022, decreased to 90.9, down more than a point from 92.1 two weeks earlier.
- Thirty-one percent (31%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
