A GOP strategist was awed over the weekend after a string of new polls found that the Republican Party’s attempts to “goose” voters during the midterms were falling flat. <\/p>\n

Republicans have been pushing several policy positions in hopes of getting their base to turn out for the midterms, such as increasing voter identification requirements, fighting back against a billionaire tax proposal in California, and addressing the rising cost of living. President Donald Trump has also pleaded with voters to pretend he’s on the ballot in state races to boost turnout. <\/p>\n

But Mike Madrid, a long-time GOP strategist, warned in a new Substack essay that recent polling shows these attempts are falling flat. <\/p>\n

“Ouch!” Madrid wrote about the falling poll numbers. “Initially viewed as a \u2018turnout tool\u2019 for Republicans because they needed something to goose GOP voters to show up and vote in a time when even the most MAGA are depressed about their President, the measures dropping support levels may actually be a drag.” <\/p>\n

Madrid also noted that voters seem turned off by positions supported by Trump. <\/p>\n

“Once voters find out this is a GOP tool that Trump supports, voters run from it like a measles outbreak,” he noted. <\/p>\n
