A new poll shows Democrat Jon Ossoff with a 7-point lead against Republican Karen Handel ahead of the runoff election in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District.

Of the 700 voters interviewed in the SurveyUSA poll conducted for Atlanta TV station WXIA, Ossoff leads with 51 percent compared to Handel’s 44 percent. Six percent of respondents were undecided and the margin of error was 4.3 percent.

Voters in the district were surveyed as evenly split on the Republican proposal to replace the 2010 health care law signed by former President Barack Obama, with 47 percent supporting and an equal number opposing.

It’s a shame that the GOP could not have the sense to whittle down their large field for the primary and consolidate support around a more viable candidate.
Plus, Handel isn’t exactly a President Trump advocate.

Believe that Gingrich was often behind in polls prior to his winning the district. He should comment.

Any credibility? Or if Karen wins is this just a set up for “Russia helped her!”

People think she might be a Paul Ryan person. If so then worthless vote.

During the last presidential election a certain number of people some of whom were already getting harassed for their support of DJT would not answer pollsters correctly or at all.
Might be happening again in this race.

Too bad people chose an anti-Trump cuck in the primary. She is horrible but that district is pretty much gone because of immigration anyway. I barely recognize Cobb county anymore

Oh yes of course the Democrat will win just as Hillary won the state of Georgia - why everybody knows that.

Yep...you’re right - everyone is leaving the Republicans. We know this because the polls tell us so...

Some of the people posting on this site are just too precious.

GOPe RINOs are also frustrating the hell out of voters by fumbling away obamacare repeal and not funding major Trump promises.

As Rush said following the 2017 budget debacle, “why vote republican?”

That’s a very strong Republican district.

If the Democrat wins, then you can bet it was stolen.

The only question would be is how come the Republican Party has turned that incompetent not to recognize it.

WXIA is very Lefty too.

I would not put a lot of stock in some manufactured poll.

Remember all the polls telling us Trump would never be president?

Garbage, it's the republicans that are attacking Trump on "russiagate" by encouraging this witch hunt. That is what is turning voters off on rebubs.

A Trump advocate may not be the ticket in this district, I’m sad to say. Trump barely carried it.
