"One group that I think is especially important to keep an eye on is women 18 to 49, a very important part of the Democratic coalition,'' said Micah Roberts, partner at Public Opinion Strategies, which serves as the survey's Republic pollster. "They have they've seen a massive drop in terms of their economic approval." The rating for that metric dropped 13 points compared to last quarter to 34%.
