Results weighted from a representative sample of 3,911 readers, a retiring Senate parliamentarian who declines to be named because she intends to work until 2044, one Wall Street trader who answered only in basis points, and an Ohio precinct counter who says she has now counted three midterms and trusts no one under 60 or over 97, a bracket her own mother falls outside.
