Is there a crack in the Trump coalition?
by digby
I don't know if this means anything just yet but here it is. The YouGov poll:
I'm sure you noticed that 22% of Republicans said they "strongly support" impeachment and another 10% "somewhat support" it. 19% don't know.
Let's see if this holds up. I'm skeptical. But if it does we may be looking at something fundamental shifting.
Update: Axios has some other numbers
By the numbers: The Morning Consult/Politico poll was conducted Sept. 24–26 and surveyed 1,640 registered voters with a 2% margin of error. The latest numbers show:
43% support impeachment proceedings against Trump, up 7 points from a poll on Sept. 20–22.
Opposition to impeachment dropped to 43%, falling 6 points.
Republican support for impeachment rose to 10%, up from 5% last weekend.
Independent support rose to 39%, up from 33%.
The NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll surveyed 864 adults on Sep. 25 with a 4.6% margin of error.
49% support impeachment, up from 39% in April.
46% oppose impeachment, down from 53% in April.
Between the lines: "The Ukraine story, and subsequent calls for his impeachment, have not changed Trump’s already-low approval rating. Forty-one percent of voters approve of Trump and 56 percent disapprove, roughly unchanged since the Sept. 20-22 poll," per Morning Consult.
