2010 Elections: Democratic Party Image Hits a Nearly 20-Year Low, Poll Says

(Princenton, NJ) — April 8, 2010. The Democratic Party slide continues.

Its image is scraping the bottom of an 18-year low, according to a new Gallup poll released today.

Americans’ favorable rating of the Democratic Party dropped to 41% in a late March USA Today/Gallup poll, the lowest point in the 18-year history of this measure. Favorable impressions of the Republican Party are now at 42%, thus closing the gap between the two parties’ images that has prevailed for the past four years.

Not good, Dems.
