The NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds 50 percent of registered voters favor a Democratic-controlled Congress, compared to 40 percent who say they would prefer Republicans.
The poll also finds that 60 percent of Democratic voters say they have a "high degree" of interest regarding the 2018 midterm elections. Among those who voted for Hillary Clinton, 64 percent say they have high interest in the upcoming midterm elections.
Fifty-four percent of Republicans feel the same way, according to the poll. A slightly higher percentage of those who voted for President Trump, 57 percent, say they have a high degree of interest in the upcoming midterms. The poll also finds that 43 percent of respondents approve of the job Trump is doing in office.
