CNN Opinion Poll: Watch the Race for Control of US Homes
Before US congressional elections, polls often asked voters which party’s candidate they would support in their House district, a question sometimes referred to as the “universal ballot”. The CNN poll averages these results as measured by national, nonpartisan surveys that meet CNN’s standards. The general vote poll provides a glimpse into the overall political environment, but since members of Congress are elected from individual districts, a party’s approval rating in such a national poll can may not directly correlate with the number of seats they win in the US House of Representatives. The tight divide in common voting preferences often heralds a Republican win in the House. View general election voting from time to time
