New RSLC Poll: Republicans Leading by Two on State Legislative Generic Ballot

Washington D.C.— The Republican State Leadership Committee (RSLC) today released results from an extensive statewide survey done in Nevada that shows state Republicans in a strong position ahead of November, as Carson City Democrats are being dragged down by President Biden and their failure to adequately address the rising cost of living in the state. 

The new survey conducted by Cygnal survey found:

• Republicans lead on the state legislative generic ballot by two points (48%-46%).
• Elected Democrats in the state Legislature are under water by 6 points (42%-48%)
• President Biden has a dismal image rating of 41%-57%.
  • Only 40% of those surveyed want the Legislature to support Biden’s agenda, while 52% want the Legislature to enact opposite policies to push back on the President.
• The cost of living is the top issue Nevadans want their state government to address at 27%.
• Nevadans are 65% less likely to vote for a state legislative candidate who voted for legislation that could lead to higher energy costs.
• Nevadans are 59% less likely to vote for a state legislative candidate who belongs to the party in power that has given the state the second highest unemployment rate in the country, the second highest gas prices, and made it the second least educated state.

“Nevada Democrats in the Legislature have Nevada at the bottom of the list on every key economic metric as a result of being in lockstep with President Biden’s failing liberal agenda,” said RSLC Deputy Communications Director Mason Di Palma. “Nevadans deserve a state legislative body that works for them and not Democrats in Washington D.C. Republicans are building momentum in Nevada and will continue holding Democrats accountable for their failed record as we near November.”

Earlier this year, the RSLC named the Nevada Legislature as a top offensive target for 2022 where the committee will try to make meaningful gains.
