This statistic shows the results of a survey conducted in October 2013 among adult Americans on how they view Republican leaders in Congress in light of the government shutdown in the United States. The shutdown occurred because the Republicans in Congress and President Obama could not reach an agreement on the federal budget. In the worst case, a shutdown can result in national bankruptcy. During this survey, 24 percent of respondents stated that they felt more positive towards the Republican leaders in Congress as a consequence of the 2013 government shutdown.
As a consequence of the shutdown, do you feel more negative or more positive toward Republican leaders in Congress?
