NBC’s Murray: Poll on ‘Who Wants to Control Congress’ Shows that Biden Is Doing a ‘Whole Lot Better’ than Four Months Ago

‘But still rough sledding the next six months’

EXCERPT:

MURRAY: "Jonathan, I’m really glad that you ended up asking this question because to me, our congressional preference is the best kind of indicator on what does the overall political environment look like. Let’s take away attitudes about President Biden, about former President Donald Trump, let's just ask straightly what is the overall political environment, and 47-46 shows certainly is a very, very close race right now. But if you’re Democrats, if you're people in the Biden campaign, you realize that, hey, that 47-46 split is a whole lot better than it was three or four months ago. And, Jonathan, one other thing about improving a political climate for Democrats. It is not just our poll that's showing it, it's almost kind of the totality of polling. It's minimal numbers, all within the margin of error, but they all end up showing one thing: that Democrats and President Biden are doing better than they were a couple of months ago, but it's still rough sledding the next six months."
