Oh BS. Ras is a solid pollster and fairly GOP friendly too. If he says the race is tied, it's probably tied.
Afraid so, although the factors of who has yet to vote, who has already voted and for whom, and the fact that responses to polling are at about 9% where conservatives tend not to respond may lead to a huge difference between polling results and reality.
Here's to hoping for a repeat of 1980 and a total rebuke of the socialist regime.
