What this episode covers
New polling from Tea Party Patriots Action shows the SAVE America Act with the kind of public support most legislation never sees: 82% of Americans say only citizens should vote in American elections, including 72% of Democrats, 84% of independents, and majorities of every racial demographic. Pollster John McLaughlin, who conducted the survey of 1,000 likely voters and polled for President Trump's winning campaigns, joins Jenny Beth Martin to break down the numbers the media will not report. Voter ID draws 78% support, 95% of Americans already hold a photo ID valid for voting, and 66% reject the claim that ID requirements are an unfair barrier. Meanwhile, 56% of Americans want the Senate to keep working until the SAVE America Act passes this year, and by 56 to 28 they would rather pass the bill than protect the filibuster. McLaughlin and Martin also cover the noncitizen registration admissions in New Jersey and Alaska, where more than 3,000 suspected noncitizens sit on the rolls in a state that decided its ranked choice repeal by just 743 votes. And they dig into the Iran numbers: 72% say the Strait of Hormuz cannot be blocked, and 61% want the job finished so Iran can never obtain a nuclear weapon. With the midterm elections 98 days away, the message to the Senate is unmistakable. Learn more at teapartypatriots.org and jennybethshow.com.
