Convention of States Action, in partnership with The Trafalgar Group—one of America’s most accurate pollsters in 2016, 2018, 2020, and 2021—is releasing the results of a new national survey. Results were from surveys conducted November 30th through December 3rd of over 1,000 likely general election voters.
“At a historic moment, when the Chinese people are pushing back against an authoritarian communist regime, the American people want to see strong leadership from the Biden Administration, but instead they are getting tepid statements and political obfuscation,” said Mark Meckler, President of the Convention of States. “The Chinese Communist Party’s evil and appalling record of human rights abuses should make this an easy issue—the fact that Biden and his administration are struggling with how to respond is a demonstration on how far their party has fallen. The fact that half of Democrats are simply unsure, is likely because they are viewing this through a partisan lens, and due to the President’s lack of clarity, they are unsure of the correct Democrat talking point to repeat.”
