TIME FOR EVERY DEMOCRAT TO PANIC!
The New York Times’ Nate Cohn says,
In Iowa, the overall early vote is nearly tied in a state where Democrats usually fare well in the early vote. . . . The challenge for Democrats will be making sure that their voters from 2010 ultimately turn out: 42 percent of the Iowa voters who requested but have not returned their absentee ballots are registered Democrats; just 28 percent are registered Republicans.
The last two polls in Colorado had Cory Gardner ahead, and the GOP advantage in the early vote is three times what the state saw in 2010, when Democrat Michael Bennet barely won the Senate race!
The last three polls in Colorado showed Bob Beauprez leading or tied with incumbent Democrat John Hickenlooper!
Tom Cotton has led every poll this month in Arkansas!
Vox Populi has David Perdue ahead of Michelle Nunn by 5 points in Georgia!
Republican Nathan Deal has led the past five polls in Georgia!
What’s more, earlier in the week,
a Georgia judge denied a push from civil rights groups to force the state’s secretary of State to add 40,000 recently registered voters to the rolls, a setback for groups working to register minority voters that could have a big impact on Georgia’s hotly contested races next week.
Mary Landrieu’s at 36 percent in the most recent poll, and almost certain to go to a runoff in Louisiana!
Yesterday American Research Group showed Jeanne Shaheen and Scott Brown tied in New Hampshire!
Greg Orman’s lead over Pat Roberts in the RealClearPolitics average is just 1 point out in Kansas!
Kay Hagan’s lead in the RealClearPolitics average is just 1.6 points!
The Tampa Bay Times poll has Charlie Crist and Rick Scott tied in Florida!
Alison Grimes hasn’t led Mitch McConnell in a single poll this month in Kentucky!
Republican Charlie Baker has led the past five polls in the governor’s race in Massachusetts!
Mia Love’s ahead in that House race in Utah!
In USA Today’s survey,
significant parts of the coalition that re-elected Obama two years ago are poised to stay home. In the poll, just 7% of the likely voters are under 30; those younger voters made up 19% of those who cast ballots two years ago, according to surveys of voters as they left polling places. In contrast, the proportion of voters 65 and older has risen to 27% from 16% in 2012. Conservatives made up 35% of the electorate then; they are 41% of today’s likely voters.
Time to celebrate, November 5th.
All these scare articles are accomplishing is getting more Dems out to vote.
How’s the FBI scandal going in So. Dak.?
Still don’t think it’s going to be THAT great for Republicans. I’d be surprised if they take the Senate.
All we can do is vote, and hopefully in great enough numbers to overcome the fraud and lawsuits....
This thread is like a political Christmas present, though I’m sure that Democrats are feeling like every minute is Halloween.
I was at a business meeting today during which a lobbyist described the current NC situation. Key points:
1) The Democrat Party ground game in NC will be strong. The Dems have spent more in NC on their ground game this year than they did on their get out the vote efforts nationwide in 2010. If Hagan wins this will be the deciding factor.
2) 50% of early voters in NC through yesterday have been Democrats. The other 50% split about 20% Republican and 30% independent. She expects independents voting are primarily younger people who will favor Hagan. She has this impression because 20% of the early voters so far are first time voters.
Not really. Between vote fraud and rigged voting machines, the GOP "victory" won't be too overwhelming.
Not time yet for freepers to celebrate.
The Dem ballots that haven’t been returned will be counted anyway. Intent.
Still don’t think it’s going to be THAT great for Republicans. I’d be surprised if they take the Senate.
I tend to agree. Polls over the past ten years seem to have favored republicans more than the actual results. I believe some of this is because of demos stealing the elections.
As Han Solo said, “kid, don’t get cocky!”
I agree
sand because the GOPe has lousy leadership
Forget celebration......American voters, all...get your butts out to the polls and vote against every single Democrat running for office and destroy the current, Obamabot, Democrat “hate America” Party!!! We can celebrate on Wednesday, November 5, 2014!!! Right now...we gotta take care of business.....important business.....like saving our great country!!!
Every Freeper...instead of posting their thoughts & opinions, they should on Saturday, Sunday & Monday post GOTV messages to all of our fellow American kindred spirits that want to rid our great country of Obama and his Obamabot, Democrat Party vermin!!! for goodness sake....do it!!!
....and like Christmas, some view the pony as horse manure.
No worries. Unless it’s a blowout, fraud will come to the rescue.
NC is now a ‘Purple’ state, turning ‘Blue’, sadly. Just too many liberal imports into the ‘Triangle’ and the Charlotte area.
0bama won it in 08, and just BARELY lost it in ‘12.
With all of the money spent on her side, it would have taken one HELL of a candidate to defeat the Hag, and Tillis certainly wasn’t it. I honestly believe the more conservative candidate that Rove derailed in the primary would have had a better chance. The base would have turned out for him with a passion, and his conservative message would have brought the independents to his side, in spite of all of the money painting him as an “extremist”, which they have done to Tillis ANYWAY! LOL (how ironic)
If the registered Dems vote Dem, and the registered Repubs vote R, and the Independent’s vote as described, it’s over for the Republicans.
It isn’t mathematically possible for the Republicans to win.
