Tim Malloy, Assistant Director (203) 645-8043 FOR RELEASE: AUGUST 24, 2017 Rubenstein Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 MANY U.S. VOTERS SAY PARTIES MOVING TOO FAR LEFT, RIGHT, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY NATIONAL POLL FINDS; HEALTH CARE, RACE RELATIONS OUTWEIGH ECONOMY Many American voters, especially independent voters, say the Republican Party is moving too far to the right and the Democratic Party is moving too far to the left, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. The Republican Party is moving too far to the right, 40 percent of voters, including 41 percent of independent voters, 13 percent of Republican voters and 60 percent of Democratic voters tell the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll. The party is moving too far left, 15 percent say, while 39 percent say it is not moving too far in either direction. The Democratic Party is moving too far to the left, 41 percent of voters, including 42 percent of independent voters, 15 percent of Democrats and 72 percent of Republicans say. The party is moving too far right, 7 percent say, as 46 percent say not too far in either direction. The Democrats remain the less disliked party, with a negative 33 52 percent favorability rating among American voters, including a negative 25 56 percent among independent voters. Republicans have a negative 25 63 percent favorability, including a negative 17 68 percent among independent voters. American voters say 50 38 percent, including 49 34 percent among independent voters, that they want the Democrats to win control of the U.S. House of Representatives in 2018. Voters say 51 40 percent, including 49 36 percent among independent voters, that they want Democrats to win control of the U.S. Senate next year. Health care is the most important problem facing the nation today, 22 percent of voters say, while 19 percent list race relations; 15 percent say the economy; 12 percent cite terrorism and 9 percent list foreign policy. A great divide becomes a chasm as voters watch the two major parties drift further apart. And it is reflected in the fact that half of all voters are very dissatisfied with the way things are going in the nation today, said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll. -more-

Quinnipiac University Poll/August 24, 2017 page 2 Fifty percent of American voters are very dissatisfied with the way things are going in the nation today, with 27 percent somewhat dissatisfied, 19 percent somewhat satisfied and 3 percent very satisfied. This is the worst satisfaction rate in four years. President Donald Trump gets a slightly negative 45 49 percent approval rating for handling the economy. He has negative approval ratings for handling other key issues: 38 58 percent for handling foreign policy; 46 approve of his handling of terrorism and 49 percent disapprove; 40 58 percent for immigration; 30 65 percent for health care. North Korea Some 68 percent of American voters are concerned about a nuclear conflict with North Korea, while 31 percent are not concerned. It is more important to avoid war with North Korea, 54 percent of voters say, while 39 percent say it is more important to remove North Korea s nuclear weapons. Men want to avoid war 53 43 percent and women agree 56 36 percent. American voters disapprove 58 37 percent of the way President Trump talks about the situation in North Korea and say 54 42 percent that they do not have confidence in Trump to handle the situation. Voters say 79 14 percent that the U.S. should respond with military force if North Korea fires missiles into the waters near Guam. Support for a military response is 74 percent or higher among every listed party, gender, education, age or racial group. Still, American voters say 64 26 percent that the U.S. will be able to resolve the situation with North Korea diplomatically, rather than through the use of force. From August 17 22, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,514 voters nationwide with a margin of error of +/- 3.1 percentage points, including the design effect. Live interviewers call landlines and cell phones. The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public opinion surveys nationwide, and in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Iowa and Colorado as a public service and for research.
