“New CNN poll puts Bredesen over Blackburn by 50-45 percent in Tennessee’s U.S. Senate race”

Phew. For a while I was worried that the Democrat stood a chance of winning but now that CNN says the Democrat has it locked up I can breathe easy!

ABC reports that polls show that Hillary Clinton’s chances for winning the 2016 election stand at 92%

No link to internals. This is the same poll outfit that says Americans view Muller more favorably than trump.
This fish stinks.

Fox News had the Republican up three, and I take their polling a lot more seriously than a “CNN poll.”

There are possible Lee/Bredesen split voters in the Nashville suburbs.

I won’t be surprised if country music stars like Tim McGraw, Reba McEntire, Garth Brooks, etc. are these types of voters.

Somehow, Marsha has NOT connected with the Country music base in Nashville.

We’ll see.

The only poll that matters is on Tuesday, November 6.

“can anyone from the state of Tennessee comment with opinions, other data?”

No data but she hasn’t campaigned well IMHO. All reliant on coattails. That’s ok to a point but she’s not calling him out for what he is which is a rubber stamp Schumer vote. He’s selling his bi-partisanship as governor as a reason to send him up. He was battled tooth and nail down here by the legislature which kept him somewhat in check. He will be unencumbered to be his true lefty in DC.

Agreed, unless there are some sort of extenuating circumstances around the R GOP candidate, this stinks of a push poll

"Fox News had the Republican up three..."

And Fox polls have been consistently favorable to Democrats for years, contrary to the "conservative" labeling they get.

Bredesen is likely supporting some changes to music copyright law that would put money in those folks' pockets.

Democrats get votes the old-fashioned way. They buy them.
