Politico ^ | 10/12/2022 | Kelly Garrity

Incumbent Republican Sen. Ron Johnson is widening the gap over his Democratic challenger, Mandela Barnes, in Wisconsin’s Senate race, a new poll from Marquette Law School found.

The poll, whose results were released on Wednesday, has Johnson racking up support of 52 percent of likely voters, compared with Barnes’ 46 percent. The results are a jump from September, when polls showed Johnson polling just 1 percentage point ahead of Barnes, but are still within the survey’s margin of sampling error. Barnes has seen a decline in the polls over recent months after facing a slew of attack ads depicting him as soft on crime.

Hope this is accurate? Now, I’m worried about Mike Lee in UT too.

Agreed. It only take one or two precincts to cheat to effect the outcome of an election in a purple state.

It matters because you made up stuff that didn't exist in my post # 8 because your Dem is getting DESTROYED in Wisconsin and you are in pain over it.

You must be about the only one here that is worried about Mike Lee in Utah.
When's the last time Dems won in Utah?

I want to see Evers gone as well. He is a Tony Earl re-run.

And why doesn’t the RNC figure out that this (as well as illegal immigration) is a winning strategy for all their candidates?

It would be a good thing.

The GOP is doing dung here in Pennsylvania to help Doug Mastriano the candidate endorsed by President Trump for Governor. I have to give big money to make up the difference right here in my own state.

She was Trump’s hand picked choice to lead the RNC.

No, he is not the only one. Lee as the incumbent is polling at 41% and the race is within the margin of error. That’s cause for concern...though time will tell if it is founded.

The Democrats did not nominate a candidate in Utah. An “independent” (Evan McMullin) is running that they endorsed and declined to run their own candidate - the reality is that much of the GOP in Utah is anti-Trump. The strategy is to get them to vote against Lee to stick it to Trump and that they can stomach voting for an “independent” rather than a Democrat.
