Forty-six percent of voters think a random selection of everyday Americans could govern better than Congress, according to a new Fox News poll.
The poll found a clean house mentality amongst voters—72% of voters are ready to fire their own representatives and 62% would fire everyone and hold elections immediately (assuming the Constitution allowed it, which it doesn’t.)
The Fox News survey found a record-high 85% of Americans who disapprove of the job Congress is doing. The poll also found that 77% of Americans support term limits and 64% would consider voting for a third party presidential candidate.
Pollsters found that 55% of Americans were “frustrated and upset” with congressional Republicans, while 46% felt the same of Democrats and 45% of tea party reps in Congress. Another 45% of Americans reported being “frustrated and upset” with the president.
