New TX-23 Poll: Likely Republican Primary Voters Overwhelmingly Support Term Limits on Congress.
Washington, DC – According to a new poll conducted by RMG Research, an overwhelming 93% of the likely Republican Primary voters approve of an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that will place term limits on U.S. Senators and U.S. House Representatives.
The poll, which was conducted from November 28-December 1, also finds that Rep. Tony Gonzales currently leads the field with 33% of the vote, while 49% of Republican Party voters indicated they were undecided. However, when voters were informed that Rep. Gonzales broke his term limits pledge, his support dropped from 33% to 20%. The shift suggests that term limits can play an important role in voters’ decision-making process.
When asked how many terms members of the U.S. House should serve, 63% indicated they favor term limits of six years or less.
The survey of 300 registered voters in Texas’ 23rd congressional district was conducted online by RMG Research, Inc. in November 2023 using a representative sample to reflect the district’s population of registered likely Republican Party primary election voters. It has a margin of error of +/- 4.8 percentage points. RMG Research is owned and operated by Scott Rasmussen.
