Contributing sentiments towards policy:
50% : With Trump's return to the White House next year, and the possibility that Republicans retain control of the House, the GOP may have a unified government in Washington, teeing up a long list of legislative priorities for the new Senate leader to work on with Trump.41% : Though Trump didn't make an endorsement in the leadership race, he loomed large over the contest, weighing in with demands for the new leader to speed the confirmation of his nominees.
26% : Scott was considered the underdog in the race, facing Thune and Cornyn, who both have years of experience in leadership -- but who have also been less reliable supporters of Trump.
