An NYT/Siena College poll found independent female voters have swung over to Republicans.
Back in September Dems were favored by 14 points, independent female voters now back Republicans by 18 points.
The New York Times pointed out that the economy is a more important issue than abortion for voters.
Economic concerns and “intense” disapproval of President Biden are giving Republicans an edge with independent voters in the upcoming election, according to recent polling from The New York Times.
A NYT/Siena College poll found independent female voters in particular swung dramatically to the right in the past month, despite Democrats’ focus on abortion rights.
“In September, they favored Democrats by 14 points. Now, independent women backed Republicans by 18 points— a striking swing given the polarization of the American electorate and how intensely Democrats have focused on that group and on the threat Republicans pose to abortion rights,” the paper reported.
The Times noted that was because the economy was “a far more potent political issue in 2022 than abortion,” and a majority of voters trusted Republicans to handle it.
Good news for the GOP!
