KEY FINDINGS

6

Key Findings:

ØCurrently, a near majority of Republican voters are focused on solving one

problem: immigration. That is the top issue among 48% of Republican primary voters and 40% of non-primary voters. No other issue comes close to registering as such a high priority in this survey. It is quite clear that the government shutdown was a major influence on Republican opinions.

ØPresident Trump’s job approval and image rating could not be any stronger

among Colorado Republicans, with 90% approving of the job he is doing and 72% strongly approving. He is giving Republican voters what they want, and they love him for it.

ØRepublicans strongly approve of the job Donald Trump is doing for a number

• f reasons. First, they believe he is keeping his campaign promises of fighting

illegal immigration, improving the economy, creating jobs and not acting like a typical politician. Many respondents express a loyalty toward him because they believe he sincerely cares about all Americans, rich or poor, white or minority, and that he is fighting for them personally.

7

Colorado Republican Survey, 622n, +/-3.93%, Jan/Feb 2019

Key Findings:

ØEighty-seven percent of respondents think President Trump’s

economic program and policies are making the economy better. 88% support building a wall along the border of Mexico and 81% supported his decision to shut down the government in order to get funding for the wall.

ØAny thought of a primary challenge to Donald Trump at this time

would be futile. Among all respondents, 78% want Donald Trump to be the Republican Presidential nominee in 2020 and only 17% prefer “someone else”.

ØThe overwhelming belief regarding why Republican candidates lost

in 2018 was because of a migration of liberal and Democratic voters from other states to Colorado.

8

Colorado Republican Survey, 622n, +/-3.93%, Jan/Feb 2019

Key Findings:

ØRepublican voters overwhelmingly prefer uncompromising,

conservative candidates (61%) to moderate candidates who are more willing to work with Democrats to get things done (33%).

ØSixty-two percent of Republican voters oppose state funded, full-

day kindergarten regardless of the cost, while 34% support it.

ØSixty percent of Republicans support the proposed “Red Flag”

gun control legislation and 33% oppose it.

ØThere are many different opinions regarding what Republicans

should do to be more successful in the 2020 election cycle. Many respondents believe the right approach is to educate voters about the economic accomplishments of the Trump Administration and stand with the President.

Major Themes Keeping Campaign Promises Stance on Illegal Immigration Fighting for Jobs Improving Economy Delivering What He Promised

“Donald Trump has lowered our taxes and we feel it for those of us who are on low

• incomes. Donald Trump has brought jobs

back to this country and people are working again when hundreds and thousands were not working. Donald Trump has increased our military and protected us. Donald Trump wants good schools and he wants good healthcare. He’s not responsible for what Congress does and Donald Trump really cares about the American people, not like the others in Congress and not like what we have in Colorado now. ”

• Female, 65+, Suburbs

“President Trump is doing an incredible job for this country, unlike the last President who ruined everything for the last 8 years. President Trump is making America great again, he is increasing jobs for everyone, he is helping everyone out. He is making people want to be Americans again. ”

“I approve of Donald Trump because has kept his word on everything he has said he would do for our country. ”

• Female, 45-54, Big City

“He is trying to get things that are important done and stuff that will help the United States in general, not just the rich or the

things done to help people and get the poor and the middle class to where they have a change in

• America. ”
• Female, 35-44, Small Town

In your own words, being as descriptive as possible, please tell me why you APPROVE of the job Donald Trump is doing.

“He is governing with conservative principles. He is trying to reach out to both sides of the aisle. Trying to uphold the Constitution of the U.S. as it is written. Not succumbing to the mob rule, populist mentality. ”

• Male, 45-54, Small Town

“He is for America. He is against the immigration of the illegal coming in. They need to go away, we are suffering day by day. ”

• Female, 65+, Rural Area

OPINION OF 2018 HISTORICAL REPUBLICAN LOSSES

21

22

Major Themes Liberal, Democratic Leaning Voters Moving into CO Voters Being Attracted to “Free Stuff” Negative Media Coverage

“Too many liberals and too many people wanting a free handout instead of working for a living. Too many people wanting big government ”

• Female, 55-64, Rural

“I think due to the growth in Denver a large part of the people that have moved here have come from a very liberal state and have brought their politics with them. ”

• Female, 35-44, Big City

“It was because of the influx of

• ut of state people moving to

Colorado, and that the government is taking a more active role or bigger role in terms regulation of everyday lives. ”

• Male, 18-34, Big City

As you may know, Republicans suffered historical losses in the 2018 general election here in Colorado. In your own words, being as descriptive as possible, please tell me why you think that happened.

“I guess it was probably because more people in California are moving here and we are sort of a blue state and combined with Trump not being completely strong in his campaign. I think he lost momentum in the last 2 years on the specific issue of immigration. ”

• Male, 18-34, Suburbs

“Too much influx from California and other liberal states, and a very poor job by Republicans. ”

• Male, 65+, Rural Area

“I think there’s been a lot of lies spread about Republicans and about Trump and I think Colorado is very liberal. I think that people don’t listen, they just believe what they want to believe. They don’t check out the facts. There are so many people against President Trump because he is a businessman, and not a politician. ”

“I think they should support the President and fight for what America should be and take a stance instead of being cowards.”

• Female, 65+, Big City

“I think they need to articulate and verbalize Republican values, support the things that Donald Trump has done that supports Republican values and Western values.

• Female, 65+, Suburbs

“They need to support the President and when they get to Washington they need to keep their promises about supporting the President. We're not going to put up with politicians who lie to us anymore.”

• Female, 65+, Rural

In your own words, being as descriptive as possible, please tell me what you think Republican candidates in Colorado should do to be more successful in the 2020 election cycle?

“They should be truthful and honest. Majority of them are lying anyway. They should focus on the problems, like abortion. They should not flip-flop when they stand on some issues, like military and abortion.”

• Male, 45-54, Big City

“They need to get out and let their voices be heard and not let the media quiet

• them. ”
