Breitbart ^ | 10/28/2022 | Jacob Bliss

The Republicans expanded their lead on the generic congressional ballot to seven points, with an 18-point advantage among independents, with 11 days left before the election, according to Rasmussen Reports’ weekly poll.

This week’s weekly poll showed that the Republican candidate leads by seven points, up from last week’s four-point advantage, with 49 percent of likely U.S. voters to the generic Democrat candidate’s 42 percent.

Generic polls elect no one.

They are seeing something that they can’t stop. The big thing is to make sure we hold Republican’s accountable. If a candidate wins and doesn’t fight... they gotta go.

Would be wonderful to see it bump up to 10 points next Friday. With the current momentum the GOP has, this is not outside the range of possibility.

A vote for a democrat is a vote for an accomplice to murder. Pure and simple. There’s no in between. You are all in for Jesus or all in for Satan. You would think the times in which we live would be a wake up call!

Nancy said she can seat whoever she wants in Congress.

All she has to do is have the DOJ pull the newly elected Republicans out of the Capitol.

Sarcasm. At least I hope it is.

Notice how the stock market has been going up the last week or so? Can’t help but wonder if this is on orders from the White House.

It’s starting to smell like wholesale slaughter.

“Generic polls elect no one.”

Correct—particularly in an off year election where turnout can be much lower than a presidential year.

That said—if the voter turnout reflects poll results the Democratic candidates will be crushed in all but the hardest core Democratic precincts.

The generic polls are a Yuge cost save when it comes to creating clickable “News”.

Generic polls have their purpose—imho they are best for showing national trends—if you compare apples to apples over time.

It is important to avoid over-estimating their importance, but equally important to avoid under-estimating them as well.

At 2 weeks out they are just cheap media fodder.

Each [or just the interesting] District[s] needs to be evaluated to make it of any real value as real news.

I don’t know. I feel sort of bad for Nancy after her nancy-boy DUI husband was so brutally attacked with a hammer by that mean man who was in his underwear. I’m afraid I’m going to have to follow Mitt Romney’s advice and vote the straight Democrat ticket a week from Tuesday. It’s the least I can do to show my sympathy for the long-suffering Pelosi family.

The problem with congressional district polls is that they are much harder to get accurate, particularly in off year elections when you really do not know who is going to show up and vote.

Small sample size just makes the problem worse.

Likely true, but it’s the only thing that matters until the polls that count are counted.

It’s the future. Quite tough to predict but there are many rent seekers who do want to ca$h in.

The rise in the stock market is likely in response to Wall Streeters wanting to buy low. They are seeing the way the political winds are blowing and don’t want to miss the wave by waiting until after the election to buy in.
