Generic Congressional Ballot’s All Tied Up (Republicans LEAD by a Point!!!!!)
Rasmussen Reports ^ | November 5, 2018 | Rasmussen Reports

Posted on 11/05/2018 6:02:30 AM PST by PJ-Comix

The final Rasmussen Reports Generic Congressional Ballot before Election Day shows Republicans edging ahead by one point, but in essence, the two parties are tied. The survey has a +/-2 percentage point margin of error.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey of Likely U.S. Voters finds that 46% would choose the Republican candidate if the elections for Congress were held today. Forty-five percent (45%) would vote for the Democrat. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and six percent (6%) remain undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

A week ago, Democrats held a 47% to 44% lead. Since Rasmussen Reports began the weekly surveying in early May, Democrats have led every week but one until early last month. Following the controversy surrounding the Senate confirmation of U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanuagh, the Generic Congressional Ballot was tied for two weeks, but then Democrats moved back ahead.

Nancy Pelosi should NEVER have declared the Democrats to have already won last week. The ancient Greeks warned about HUBRIS and treated it as the gravest of sins which would be severely PUNISHED. And Nancy's punishment will be public HUMILIATION. Oh, and I don't think she will even survive as Minority Leader. Angry Dems will vote her OUT of the leadership possibly resulting in her resignation from Congress.

Maybe this well-timed rainy weather is God’s way of expressing an opinion of the leftists. Let’s all go out tomorrow and vote Republican straight down the ticket!

Interesting observation by my friend Stephen Limbaugh, Rush’s nephew, that there is a total absence of discussion of the election by “da yutes” on social media.

Big tell they won’t turn out.

This is troubling.
The GOP SHOULD BE way ahead.

I hope the polls are wrong

When I went to early vote here in Florida a couple of weeks ago, there was a long line so during the 40 minute or so wait I took a look around and I spotted only a couple of yutes out of the over hundred people there and those two looked to be a bit over 30 years old.

Given that the Dem votes are clustered in major cities, anything less than 50% Dem translates into a bloodbath for them.

Also the latest Rasmussen Presidential Approval Poll just now came out: 50% (really meaning 60%).

Now the “push polls” are finally coming around to where the sentiment has been all along.

They produce Fake News for the Fake News Networks and try to get everyone on the Socialist Band Wagon, then, in the final days, they start showing it as a tie. That way when they don’t win in all in a Blue Wave they can say their final polls showed things were going “wrong.”

Uhh, yeah.

But thus is a vastly different landscape.
The country doing unbelievably well by every parameter.

The incumbent president’s party being opposed by outright racists and communists who created the mess he resolved.

It should’t even be a contest.
