Summary
Fifty-three percent of voters say they would back the Democratic candidate for the House and 46% the Republican, widening Democrats’ edge from 5 points in April to 7 points in the new Fox News poll.
Thirty-nine percent approve of Trump’s job performance, while 75% rate the economy negatively and 54% expect it to worsen, reinforcing the voter discontent that pollsters say is helping Democrats.
Democrats now lead on inflation by 10 points, the economy by 9 and foreign policy by 7, and they have flipped immigration from an 8-point GOP advantage in April to a 1-point Democratic edge.
Sixty-eight percent of Democrats say they are extremely motivated to vote versus 57% of Republicans, though Fox pollster Daron Shaw said Democrats may still need a 6-7 point national win to likely take the House.
