POLL: Will lawmakers’ actions at Tuesday’s State of the Union Address impact your voting in the upcoming mid-term election?

Clark County Today’s latest poll asks voters whether lawmakers’ conduct during the State of the Union will influence their mid-term election decisions.

Ken Vance argues that Democratic lawmakers’ response during President Trump’s State of the Union crossed the line from protest into disrespect

In his latest opinion column, Clark County Today Editor Ken Vance reflects on Tuesday night’s State of the Union address and sharply criticizes the conduct of Democratic lawmakers. He points to their refusal to stand when President Trump asked legislators to affirm that the government’s first duty is to protect American citizens, as well as moments of vocal protest during the speech. While acknowledging that Republicans’ repeated standing ovations were excessive, Vance writes that the Democrats’ actions were “downright disgusting and offensive.” As voters look ahead to the upcoming mid-term election, this week’s poll asks whether the behavior on display in the House chamber will influence how you cast your ballot.
