The September 2026 Omnibus
It’s Week 6, and the good news is Trump’s disapproval rating is holding steady at an abysmal 58%, and Dems maintain a comfortable 7-point lead on the General Ballot. Here’s what else we noticed in our post-Labor Day Clarity Omnibus survey of likely midterm voters:
- Inflation woes are at an all-time low, with even Republicans taking notice. Net approval of Trump's handling of inflation dropped 10 points from our last Omnibus survey in July to -39% among likely midterm voters.
- Dems lead with voters most hurt by the economy: Democrats are winning voters who report struggling to pay their bills at least a few times per year by 21 points, and winning voters who anticipate their financial situation to get worse by 45 points.
- On the generic ballot, Dems are comfortably leading among self-identified Independents and swing voters, but are only +2% on soft disapprovers of Trump.
