AP-NORC Poll Finds Voters Want Change In Midterm Elections
A recent AP-NORC poll found that a substantial majority of voters believe President Trump is underperforming domestically and internationally and want significant change in the upcoming midterm elections, findings that could pose challenges for Republicans.
Detroit, MI, October 15, 2026 —
A recent AP-NORC poll found that a substantial majority of voters believe President Trump is underperforming both domestically and internationally, according to a summary of the findings. The poll also found strong voter interest in significant change in the upcoming midterm elections.
The results point to a potentially difficult political environment for the Republican Party. The summary of the poll describes the findings as suggesting possible challenges for Republicans, but does not provide details about how voters’ views may affect particular races or election outcomes.
The information available does not include the poll’s field dates, sample size, precise percentages, questions, or margin of error. It also does not identify which domestic or international issues respondents considered when assessing Trump’s performance. Without those details, the findings cannot be examined more specifically or compared with other polling results.
The summary characterizes the share of voters who see Trump as underperforming as a substantial majority, but provides no exact figure. It likewise describes support for significant change as strong without quantifying that sentiment. No breakdown by party affiliation, region, or other voter characteristics was provided.
The poll offers a broad indication of voter dissatisfaction and appetite for change ahead of the midterms. However, the information provided does not establish how those views will translate into voting behavior. Additional poll details would be needed to assess the size and distribution of the attitudes reported.
