Democrats hold 6-point generic ballot lead in final American Barometer poll before mid-terms
Democrats retain a slight edge nationwide as Americans head to the polls on Election Day.
In the final Hill.TV American Barometer poll before Tuesday's midterms, Democrats hold a six-point advantage on the generic congressional ballot.
In the survey, which was conducted among 1,000 registered voters by the HarrisX polling company, 43 percent of respondents said they would vote for the Democrat running in their U.S. House district while 37 percent said they would pick the local Republican.
Democrats have consistently led Republicans in Hill.TV surveys in recent months, thanks in part to discontent among their voters about President Trump and his policies.
"Donald Trump is really the main issue of this election. It's him and his vision for what America should be," Mallory Newall, research director at Ipsos Public Affairs, said on Monday's broadcast of "What America's Thinking," Hill.TV's show about public opinion and the polling industry. "On this Democratic side, you have outrage about him, about, perhaps, the Supreme Court hearings and about health care."
