New CA-45 Poll: An Overwhelming 89% of Likely Primary Voters Support Term Limits on Congress
Washington, DC – According to a new poll conducted by RMG Research, an overwhelming 89% of likely primary voters in California’s 45th congressional district 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 14-19, also finds that incumbent Rep. Michelle Steele currently leads the field with 28% of the vote. 47% of voters indicated they were undecided. However, when voters were asked who they would support if they knew Cheyenne Hunt backed congressional term limits and the other candidates oppose, she leaps from 4% to 15% while Rep. Steele drops to 20%. This puts Steele and Hunt in a statistical tie considering the margin of error. This means that term limits plays an important role in the decision-making process. 
When asked how many terms members of the U.S. House should serve, 66% indicate they favor term limits of six years or less.
The survey of 300 registered voters in California’s 45th 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 primary election voters. It has a margin of error of +/- 5.7 percentage points. RMG Research is owned and operated by Scott Rasmussen.
