ICE is underwater in YouGov poll

 
Graphs and headlineYouGov, 7/21/2026

After U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents shot and killed two people in Texas and Maine last week, this week's Economist / YouGov Poll finds that 60% of Americans have heard about the recent killings. It appears that the news has not spread equally across the political spectrum: While the overwhelming majority (78%) of Democrats say have read, seen, or heard anything about the killings last week, smaller shares of Independents (55%) and Republicans (51%) say the same.

Sarah Davis reports:
The businessman, who is backed by President Trump, lost to Minnesota House Speaker Lisa Demuth (R) by roughly 11 percentage points, according to Decision Desk HQ. 
When asked by a reporter on his live network, LindellTV, about whether he would concede the race if The Associated Press called it for his opponent, the GOP candidate responded, “Why would I listen to the AP?” 
“There’s 265,000 votes left to count. I’m down by 18,000 now,” he continued. “I’m not going to give up this race until the votes are counted. That’s nonsense.”  [emphasis added]

Down by 18,000, Mikey?  Check again. You're down by 45,370 at last count.
