Unfortunately when Dems are in control of a state for as long as they’ve been in Minnesota they’ve had the opportunity to totally hotwire everything.

“Striking distance” ha ha ha say good bye to that seat Schumer Mini Me. BTW Republicans will take two Democrat House seats in Minnesota as well.

“Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith (D) holds a 7-point lead over Republican challenger and state Sen. Karin Housley ahead of November’s midterms, according to a new poll publishing Monday.”

Look what the Swedes have done to Sweden...why shouldn’t they do it to the Land of 100,000 Somalis too?

Hey Al,
Are yellow teeth popular in Minnesota?
Worst regards,

“I am a lifelong MN resident. I have never...repeat...NEVER to my recollection seen a Star-Tribune Minnesota Poll that showed a Republican in the lead in any race for anything at any time.”

Agreed.

I’m gonna look over the cross-tabs on the Red Star’s polling later - but I have no doubt they oversampled Democrats.

It’s in their DNA. It’s what they do. inaccurate polling results.

This seat is doable for Karin Housley. This poll is about 4 weeks old. Current polls have it 5 points apart - but both candidates have poor name recognition. The undecideds are 25% of the polling.

Karin needs more donors for her campaign, as she must get her name publicized more. She is a very good candidate. Any freepers out there willing to take a chance on flipping this senate seat to the GOP in November? If so, go to Karin’s website and donate. Every little bit helps.

KARIN HOUSLEY FOR SENATE IN 2018!

Turn Minnesota red in 2018!

Landline based polls can’t access “risk takers.”

Trump is disproportionally backed by risk takers. Proof is his election.

Polls miss diehard Trump supporters with no landline.

What is a landline?

Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith (D) holds a 7-point lead over Republican challenger and state Sen. Karin Housley ahead of November's midterms, according to a new poll publishing Monday.

By that token then Beto O'Rourke is within striking distance of taking Ted Cruz's seat and Mike Espy is within striking distance of taking the Mississippi seat. Anyone want to put money on whether either candidate will win?

That Senate seat has always been very very close no matter who is in it.
