What an implausible poll! A functioning democracy, and what should this mean? Literally, the people will rule. And in my opinion, a representative of the people is still elected by the people! Explain such a shameless poll to people who can't afford their homes or feed their children.

I wish they would just report the results on election night and not try to predict the results before people even vote.

Dear God please lend your loving hand of protection over America as we approach the elections. Please end this effort by the enemy to destroy our values, Independence, law & order and end the pain & suffering we've experienced these last two years. ❤️🙏

Me and many other moms can't find formula and I can barely fill my tank or get groceries but that isn't a big deal? What?

I don't think any Republican doesnt want a functioning democracy but this video implies we've had a functioning democracy....

*Mortgage rates are now over 7%! They were under 3% under Trump! Homebuyers who haven't been scared off can now only afford a $200, 000 house instead of a $400, 000 house or higher! Our 401-Ks are tanking! Gas prices are still too high and 8.2% inflation is eating away at family budgets! WHY WOULD I VOTE TO CONTINUE THIS INSANITY???!!!!*

The notion that People supposedly care more about democracy than economy is asinine

[hka]

I dont think they talked to women about abortion. #roevember

[retrodog]

If they ever show that the blue was in front then it is completely corrupt!!!

[bloodsurf]

If you want both then vote Republican. I'm voting thumbs down because this video is saying that if you don't vote for Communism then you will lose your Democracy. I say vote for who you want and don't let CBS sway you with their rhetoric

[ComicKish]

How can their be a democracy when both sides and political parties do t work for American people but rather work for Jews and lobbyists and big business

[ComicKish]

How can their be a democracy with early voting and mail in voting ?

If men got pregnant, there is NO WAY we would let the government dictate this decision. Vote

It’s strange that their graphic is reversed. I assume they realized that.

"On how the mid terms might unfold, we turn to..."

Yes, just what we need, more speculation.

No thanks.

Let the liberal tears flow like the mighty Mississippi😢

It remains to be seen whether the GOP will actually holds lead in House seats. People would have to show up in record numbers at the polls to change all of that.
