  • Obama Approval Drops to New Low in Iowa, Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Braley, Whitaker Close in Senate Race
    Peter Brown, Assistant Director, Quinnipiac University Polling Institute (203) 535-6203 Rubenstein Associates, Inc. Public Relations Contact: Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 FOR RELEASE: DECEMBER 18, 2013 OBAMA APPROVAL DROPS TO NEW LOW IN IOWA, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY POLL FINDS; BRALEY, WHITAKER CLOSE IN SENATE RACE President Barack Obama gets a negative 38 – 59 percent job approval rating among Iowa voters, according to a poll released today, his lowest score in the state and one of his lowest in any state or national survey conducted by Quinnipiac University. This compares to a negative 41 – 55 percent approval rating in a July 22 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University. President Obama gets negative scores of 30 – 67 percent among men, 45 – 51 percent among women, 7 – 93 percent among Republicans and 31 – 62 percent among independent voters. Democrats approve 82 – 15 percent. Looking at the 2014 U.S. Senate race, 29 percent see their vote as a vote against Obama, while 14 percent say it is a vote for Obama and 54 percent say Obama is not much of a factor. In the 2014 Senate race, U.S. Rep. Bruce Braley, the Democrat, gets 43 percent, while U.S. Attorney Matt Whitaker, the Republican, gets 40 percent. Braley tops other possible Republican contenders: 44 – 38 percent over State Sen. Joni Ernst; 46 – 37 percent over businessman Mark Jacobs; 44 – 36 percent over former U.S. Senate aide David Young; 45 – 34 percent over radio commentator Sam Clovis; 46 – 40 percent over political activist Bob Vander Plaats. “President Barack Obama twice carried Iowa and it was the Iowa Caucuses which began his march to the presidency, but if he were on the ballot here today he would be toast,” said Peter A.

  • After Citizens United
    After Citizens United A Look into the Pro-Corporate Players in American Politics The Supreme Court’s 5-4 ruling in Citizens United v. FEC decided that the First Amendment right of free speech should apply with little distinction to both individuals and corporations. Since Buckley v. Valeo established money as a form of speech, the Court’s decision allows for corporations to donate unrestricted funds from their general treasuries to political organizations, effectively overturning decades of state and federal campaign finance laws. Fearing effects of greater corporate influence in American public life, Justice Stevens in his dissenting opinion warned that corporations can “amass and deploy financial resources on a scale few natural persons can match,” and are not “themselves members of ‘We the People’ by whom and for whom our Constitution was established.” Although corporations now have a constitutional right to contribute money to independent expenditure groups, these groups are not bound to publicly disclose the sources of their funding. Even though the majority opinion in Citizens United actually upheld Congress’s right to enact disclosure laws, claiming that such “transparency enables the electorate to make informed decisions” without “impos[ing] a chill on speech or expression,” 501 (c)4 and (c)6 organizations that do not disclose their financial backers are increasingly engaging in political work. While we do not know who is funding such organizations, we do know that the groups playing a larger role in the 2010 elections are overwhelmingly backing right-wing candidates. According to TIME¸ pro-Republican groups could spend as much as $300 million for the 2010 election.
