  • After a challenging six months, Democrats have recovered in a number of key polling metrics, including Senate and House of Representatives forecasts, and the generic Congressional ballot.
  • President's Biden's approval rating has also stabilised after a long period of decline and is currently hovering marginally below 40% on both Real Clear Politics and FiveThirtyEight approval aggregators.
  • The White House will be hoping that Biden can effectively link his office to recent legislative success in Congress as Biden's approval is considered a key drag on vulnerable Democrat lawmakers ahead of the midterms.
