Morning Consult/Politico poll disclosed, on Wednesday, that Republicans and Democrat voters are becoming more and more eager about the upcoming US midterm elections.

With an unweighted margin of error of plus or minus 2%, the survey was conducted from August 12–14 among a representative sample of 2,005 registered voters.
 
According to the poll's findings, a record amount of anticipation for the midterm elections, with 65% of Republicans and 62% of Democrats saying they are either "very" or "extremely" excited to vote.

The poll's findings also revealed that Republican voters are more likely than Democratic voters to say they are "extremely" excited to cast their ballots in the next election (44% vs. 36%).

According to the study, recent events in the US, such as the contentious FBI search of former President Donald Trump's Florida home and the Democrats' approval of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, are among the main causes of the rising interest in voting.

Those who were "very confident" that elections actually reflect the people's will accounted for just 16%, and another 26% seemed to be "somewhat confident."
