“With all the talk in the Senate about beginning to find a way out of the shutdown, House Democratic leadership showed polling today to their rank-and-file members in a bid to keep the government closed until they get a deal on Obamacare,” Punchbowl News reports.
“This comes as some states have declared emergencies in an effort to deal with a lapse in SNAP funding, the federal program that helps feed more than 40 million Americans.”
“Molly Murphy, a top Democratic pollster at Impact Research, presented data Thursday that showed voters, by a nearly 2-to-1 margin, endorsed Democrats’ strategy to keep the government closed while they fight for a deal to keep premiums from spiking.”
