Voter/Consumer Research for Mitch McConnell (10/5-8, likely voters, 9/7-9 in parens):
Bruce Lunsford (D): 38 (35)
Mitch McConnell (R-inc): 47 (52)
(MoE: ±3.6%)
The biggest take-away here is simple: Mitch is below 50% in his own polling for the first time. Other polling in recent weeks, from both Mason-Dixon and SurveyUSA have shown a dead heat, while Rasmussen is a bit closer to McConnell’s numbers.
Lunsford’s favorable/unfavorable spread is 31-40, which is not great for us, but this might be the kind of year where voters are a bit more willing to accept his flaws in order to push change in a time of crisis.
SSP currently rates this race as Lean Republican.
UPDATE: Har-har.
Instead of continuing to tout Rasmussen’s numbers. Odd.
Is hilarious haha.
I couldn’t even tell it was supposed to be an attack ad till the end. Best part was the hippie museum.
Most voters probably have little if any knowledge of who Schumer is. And that ad didn’t even mention Lunsford. I’m confused as what the point of this ad is. Complete waste of what little resources the repubs have.
are trying to take your Senator!!!!!
heh.
