‘Democratic Pollster Has Udall Breaking Ahead Of Gardner In Colorado’

Democratic pollster? Well, duh.

(Actually, one can’t underestimate the voting power of the public employees concentrated in the Denver area, and the college students in Boulder/Fort Collins. Eliminate those areas/demographics and it would be a fine State.)

Don't start this again. The pollsters were right on the money in 2008 and 2012, esp. in the senate races. In fact, you can go back to 2006 when many here, including myself, insisted that the narrow polls showing Republicans getting creamed were wrong. They were all correct.

The margin is close, and Gardener has two big issues on his side. Let's see how he campaigns, but let's not dismiss polls because we don't like the results.

Re: “Eliminate those areas/demographics and it would be a fine State.”

Actually, the swing vote in Colorado is Hispanic, Asian, and Black.

They make up roughly 20% of eligible voters, and, as a group, they went 80% for Obama in 2012.

You might be surprised to learn that white voters supported Romney, 54%-44%, over Obama.
