Ahead of US midterms, voters frustrated with Trump and want change, poll finds

A new poll shows US voters are disillusioned with President Donald Trump and want change shortly before the congressional midterm elections. Frustration and financial worries make the situation volatile for the Republican Party.

With only weeks to go before the US midterm elections, in which voters decide the makeup of Congress midway through a presidential term, a poll points to widespread frustration with President Donald Trump. Respondents say they want change, according to Al Jazeera.

The outlet's summary says the disillusionment is compounded by pocketbook anxieties, meaning worries about everyday costs and household finances. Together, these factors create a volatile backdrop for the Republican Party (GOP), Trump's party, as election night approaches.

The available source excerpt does not include the poll's specific figures, the organization that conducted it, or details of which issues concern voters most. For now, only the general trend can be stated: ahead of the vote, the mood is unfavorable to the party in power.
