AP-NORC Poll Points to Voter Concerns Ahead of Midterms
An AP-NORC poll indicates a strong majority of voters believe President Trump is underperforming both domestically and internationally, signaling a desire for significant changes in upcoming midterm elections.
Richmond Petersburg, VA, October 15, 2026 —
An AP-NORC poll indicates that a strong majority of voters believe President Trump is underperforming both domestically and internationally, according to a summary of the findings. The poll’s reported takeaway also points to voter interest in significant changes in the upcoming midterm elections.
The information available does not include the percentage of voters who hold those views, the poll’s field dates, its sample size, or the wording of the questions. It also does not specify which domestic or international issues respondents considered. Those details were not provided, so the scale and precise basis of the responses cannot be described further here.
The summary characterizes the findings as a signal of a desire for significant changes at the midterms. It does not identify which changes voters want, which candidates or policies they support, or how the poll measured that preference. The findings therefore indicate a broad political sentiment but do not, on the information provided, establish a specific electoral outcome.
The poll’s full results and methodology were not included in the summary. Without those details, no comparison with earlier polling or assessment of differences among groups of voters can be made. The reported findings are limited to the stated view of presidential performance and the indication of voter interest in change ahead of the midterm elections.
