-- Angus Reid Global Scan : Polls & Research Democrats Are 15 Points Ahead in U.S. May 24, 2006 (Angus Reid Global Scan) - The Democratic Party maintains the upper hand before this year's congressional election in the United States, according to a poll by Rasmussen Reports. 48 per cent of respondents would vote for the Democratic candidate in their congressional district, while 33 per cent would support the Republican contender. ======================================= In the November 2004 congressional ballot, the Republican Party elected 232 lawmakers to the House of Representatives, while the Democratic Party secured 202 seats. The Republicans also have a majority in the Senate, with 55 members in the 100-seat upper house. Support for the Democrats increased by two points since early May, while backing for the Republicans fell by three points. Yesterday, the House of Representatives passed the Palestinian Anti-Terrorism Act in a 361-37 vote. The legislation--sponsored by Republican congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Democratic congressman Tom Lantos--forbids all non-humanitarian aid to the Palestinian Authority until the Hamas-led government acknowledges Israel's "right to exist" and "ceases to support terrorism." A Senate version of the bill, which seeks to grant the president more freedom in dealing with the Palestinian administration, has not been voted on. American voters will renew the House of Representatives and one-third of the Senate on Nov. 7. All Content ©2003 - 2006. Angus Reid Consultants. All Rights Reserved.Privacy Policy.
