Newsweek reporting on new Gallup poll findings:
New polling carried out by Gallup from April 1 to 14 showed that confidence in Democratic congressional leadership has hit an all-time low since the organization has surveyed voters on the issue going back to 2001.
Just 25 percent of respondents expressed confidence in Democratic congressional leadership, down 9 points from the previous historic low of 34 percent set in 2023. The confidence level is also significantly below Democrats' historic average, which has been about 45 percent since 2001.
Meanwhile, confidence in congressional Republican leadership is on the upswing and is double digits ahead of Democrats.
Thirty-nine percent of respondents said they are confident in GOP leadership, up slightly from 36 percent last year. That level is also 14 points higher than current confidence in Democrats.
