Republicans Gain Ground in New Poll

A new Associated Press-GfK poll “holds bad news for President Obama, but as the November elections draw closer, there are ominous signs for congressional Democrats as well.”

In the generic congressional ballot, Republicans now hold a one point lead, 37% to 36%. Democrats were ahead by seven points in January.

Also interesting: “In the new poll, registered voters who are most strongly interested in politics favored the Republicans by 14 percentage points, 51% to 37%. In January, this group was about evenly split, with 42% preferring Democrats and 45% the Republicans.”
