Republicans are more trusted to deal with corruption in government, especially among independent voters.
That’s according to the latest Rasmussen Reports.
The survey found that 45% of likely U.S. voters trust Republicans more to handle government ethics and corruption, while 42% trust Democrats more, and 13% are not sure.
The GOP has gained slightly on this issue since January.
Eighty-four percent (84%) of Republicans trust their party more to deal with corruption, while 83% of Democratic voters trust their party more.
Among voters not affiliated with either major party, 45% trust Republicans more to handle government ethics and corruption, while 29% trust Democrats more.
This 16-point margin among independents is slightly higher than the 14-point advantage the GOP held on this issue in January.
