What's moving
VerifiedDemocratic Party — favorability stood at 41% favorable / 57% unfavorable in the most recent YouGov poll (June 8, 2026) [1]. A Marquette Law School Poll conducted roughly two weeks earlier (May 26) showed a notably lower 35.5% favorable / 61% unfavorable [2], while a prior YouGov reading from May 11 recorded 40% favorable [1]. Compared to the ~30-day-ago Marquette figure of 35.5% favorable, the June YouGov result represents an uptick of roughly 5–6 points, though the two pollsters show a persistent gap in their absolute readings.
