Poll: Heller leads by 2 points in Nevada Senate race
The Hill ^ | October 9, 2018

Posted on 10/09/2018 5:48:38 PM PDT by SMGFan

Sen. Dean Heller (R-Nev.) holds a slim but statistically insignificant lead over Rep. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) in the Nevada Senate race with a month left until Election Day, a poll released Tuesday found.

An NBC News/Marist poll shows Heller leading 46-44 percent among likely voters. The difference falls within the poll's margin of error of 5.5 points. Heller is considered one of the most vulnerable Republican senators up for reelection next month.

The poll found that independents favor Heller, 42-39 percent. The incumbent is also the preferred candidate among likely male voters by a 16-point margin. Rosen holds an 11-point advantage among likely female voters.

Its always “statistically insignificant” when the Republican is in the lead.

gotta be very very careful to do at least two things,
get all good voters to the polls
and
watch watch watch, especially in Vegas area, for any voter fraud

watch carefully!
this should be a winnable seat...

Wasn’t Sharon Angle polling well before being thrashed?

The NBC/Marist poll of Nevada was conducted – via interviews by landline and mobile phones – Sept. 30 to Oct. 3 of 929 adults (which has a margin of error of plus-minus 4.2 percentage points), 780 registered voters (plus-minus 4.5 percentage points) and 574 likely voters (plus-minus 5.5 percentage points).

Add 5/6 points to Heller.

Is Nevada taking any measures to prevent illegal aliens from voting or are they encouraging it like CA?

Sharon Angle was polling well before being thrashed on TV by Bush League Republicans like Karl Rove.

he difference falls within the poll's margin of error of 5.5 points.

A poll with a margin of error of 5.5 votes is so bad, you might as well ask one single person and publish that result.

I live in Nevada

I am female.

I will NEVER vote for Rosen.

She is an airbag...nothing else. There is NO MEAT in that sandwich-—not even PBJ. She is a total tool of Dirty Harry Reid & Pelosi.

I also won’t vote for Sisolak.

Or AARON FORD-—who voted to let home invaders & burglars sue homeowners if they got injured in homeowners house, and he now wishes to be Nevada Attorney General. Not even sure he has a lawyers license or degree. He also has a criminal record from Texas.

5.5 is quite a margin of error, isn’t it?

The Reid machine is worth 3% in cross border voting.
