capacity during a typical week, rising to 67% among current caregivers of aging

The
Hill – A new survey found that a majority of
Americans believe the country is on the wrong track and that more Americans
would vote for a Democratic candidate over a Republican candidate in the 2026
midterm elections. The survey, commissioned by the Bipartisan Policy Center
(BPC) Action and American Policy Ventures and conducted by Cygnal and Impact
Research, was conducted among 1,500 likely general election voters between
Sept. 1-2. It found that 60.5 percent of respondents believed that the country
is mostly or definitely on the wrong track.
