Fox News Poll: McCaskill up in Missouri Senate race by a whisker
Fox News ^ | September 12, 2018

Posted on 09/12/2018 4:18:29 PM PDT by SMGFan

Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill, a two-term incumbent, tops her Republican challenger Josh Hawley by a narrow 44-41 percent margin, according to a Fox News poll of Missouri likely voters. Her three-point edge is within the poll’s margin of sampling error. Third-party candidates get six percent.

While women back McCaskill by nine, the candidates are tied among white women. Men go for Hawley by four points. Suburban women support McCaskill by 14 points, while white evangelical Christians prefer Hawley by 34.

She’ll lose.

That’s why libtards are pushing fake polls of Democrat gains.

Surprisingly, the Senate Is Now in Play

Despite heavy odds stacked against them, Democrats are in the hunt

ANALYSIS — I have argued repeatedly that while the House is
up for grabs — and indeed likely to flip to the Democrats in November — the Senate is not in play. I now believe that it is, so I must revise and extend my remarks.
Only about three weeks ago, I reiterated my view that Democrats didn’t have a path to a net gain of two Senate seats, which they need for a chamber majority. But a flurry of state and national polls conducted over the past few weeks suggest Democratic prospects have improved noticeably, giving the party a difficult but discernible route for control.

Democrats are at least even money to flip two GOP-held Senate seats in November — Arizona and Nevada. Both races are very competitive, but President Donald Trump’s problems, the midterm dynamic and the two states’ fundamentals — Trump lost Nevada and barely carried Arizona — surely give Democrats a narrow but clear advantage in both states.

The Rats are defending about 20 Senate seats this year...the GOP about 10.Of the seats that the Rats are defending 10 of them are in states that DJT carried.

I think it's a safe bet that the Rats won't be taking the Senate this year.In fact,it seems possible that the GOP will pick up seats.

Her numbers have not been very good for an incumbent for as long as I can recall in the last while.

Fox News is also the pollster that had Doug Jones up by ten percentage points a day before that race.

A large percentage of conservatives refuse to answer polls because they don’t trust pollsters.

Libs are always up in polls. They said Ronald Reagan would get clobbered by Mondale or Gary Hart way back in 1984. This isn’t new. Sometimes they get it right, but it isn’t a barometer.

But McTurtle trusts the polls. And $$$ maybe pulled by NRSC based on polls.

Yup.

Republican vote is always underestimated and libtards are confounded.

Fox News is to us what John McCain was to the senate. He voted the right way usually, but he talked like a Democrat and gave aid and comfort to the enemy.

It’s not “in play”. There is no calculus this fall where Republicans do not gain seats in the Senate

The problem is that public polling had gotten worse since the 1980s.

None of the public polls are based on genuine random sampling.

Candidates private polls are and they’re never released.

All of these polls are bad news for the Democrats. Republicans have gained and most of them have grabbed a lead. Those leads should grow in the days ahead. The phoney war is over and future polls will reflect real interest by the voters and more realistic polls whose performance is being watched by future potential clients.

It’s a Fox poll, so that means we’re ahead.

She’s in trouble if Fox has her up just barely. They poll off of Shep Smith’s contact list.

These results reflect a turn against Democrats. Many recent polls have favored Democrats, a phony story IMO. TN, IN, ND, MO, AZ, are starting to look good for the Republicans and I think they their lead will grow.
