Scott Rasmussen's Number of the Day for July 23, 2019
The Number of the Day columns published on Ballotpedia reflect the views of the author.
July 23, 2019: Fifty-four percent (54%) of voters nationwide believe that President Trump is at least as ethical as most politicians. A ScottRasmussen.com national survey found that those figures include 29% who believe the president is more ethical than most politicians and 25% who say his ethical standards are normal for a politician.[1]
Other data from the survey suggest that, when it comes to ethics, voters grade politicians on a curve. While the majority believe the president is as ethical as most politicians, just 35% believe he is a good role model for young Americans.
By way of comparison, 31% believe most members of Congress are good role models.
