Poll: Majority in key House districts back bipartisan infrastructure deal
Source: The Hill
Voters in nearly three dozen congressional districts across the country overwhelmingly favor a massive bipartisan infrastructure package, though relatively few support tying its passage to a broader Democratic spending proposal, according to a new poll.
The poll, conducted by HarrisX for the bipartisan group No Labels and shared with The Hill on Thursday, found that 72 percent of voters in 33 congressional districts say they support the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill backed by the White House and a bipartisan group of lawmakers in the House and Senate.
That bill, which includes $579 billion in new spending over eight years, focuses on revamping only physical infrastructure, like roads, bridges and broadband internet.
Of the 33 districts included in the poll, 15 are represented by Democrats who are being targeted by Republicans in the 2022 midterm elections. It also included four GOP-held districts that Democrats are hoping to flip next year.
