Gardner Pulling Away in Colorado?
Weekly Standard ^ | 10/16/2014 | Michael Warren

Posted on 10/21/2014 9:56:38 AM PDT by Signalman

Republican Cory Gardner leads incumbent Democrat Mark Udall in the fourth straight poll of the U.S. Senate race in Colorado. The new Quinnipiac poll of likely Colorado voters finds Gardner ahead of Udall by 6 points, 47 percent to 41 percent, while 8 percent support an independent candidate. With that independent discounted and in a head-to-head match-up, Gardner leads 49 percent to 44 percent.

That gives the 2-term House member from Yuma a 3-point lead in the Real Clear Politics average of polls against Udall, a first-term senator. Other recent polls from CNN, Fox News, and the Denver Post show Gardner with anywhere between a 2- to 6-point lead, with Udall never registering more than 46 percent support. Udall last led a New York Times/CBS News poll in late September by three points.

In a sign that perhaps even Udall has recognized his opponent may be beating him, the Democrat accidentally addressed Gardner as "Senator" in their televised debate Wednesday night. Watch the video:

Deport, have you seen the Abbott ad where his mother-in-law endorses him? A Mexican grandmother? Devastating to Davis.

Is the “independent” on the right?

Moving outside the poll’s MOE and the Democrat MOF (margin of fraud).

The only thing I’m concerned about is the models being used by various polling firms. We know they blew it badly in 2012 and in this era when most people screen their phone calls (and rely only on a cell phone), it’s more difficult to get the necessary sampling. On the other hand, if the Dims are sending panic messages to mobilize the black vote, the public poll results we’re seeing are probably accurate and may under-represent expected GOP turnout.

Regarding Colorado, does anyone know if the DSCC has pulled or cancelled any ad buys for Udall? That’s normally the kiss-of-death.

Remember that all of Colorado’s votes are mailin and they have same day registration.

The “downside” of this, for them, is that they might “overshoot” on their fraud because they don’t know how much they “need”.
