Democrats hold a slight advantage heading into the midterm elections in a new poll from The New York Times and Siena University.
The poll found that 48% of registered voters would support a Democratic candidate if the midterm elections were held today, compared to just 43% for a Republican candidate. The poll also showed skepticism toward President Donald Trump's policies, with 47% of registered voters saying they "strongly disapprove" of how he is handling his job as president.
The poll surveyed 1,625 registered voters nationwide from Jan. 12 to 17 and advertised a margin of error of 2.8%.
