CNN poll: Democrats are fired up and maintain a strong 2018 lead Source: CNN

Washington (CNN)Four weeks out from Election Day, Democrats remain well ahead of Republicans in a generic ballot matchup, with 54% of likely voters saying they support the Democrat in their district and 41% backing a Republican, according to a CNN poll conducted by SSRS.

This is the widest margin of support for Democrats in a midterm cycle since 2006, when at this point, the party held a whopping 21-point lead over Republicans among likely voters. That's also when Democrats seized control of the House from Republicans, making Nancy Pelosi speaker

This year, Democrats' enthusiasm about their congressional vote has increased and 62% now say they're extremely or very enthusiastic to vote, up seven points since September among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents. Among Republicans and Republican leaning independents, enthusiasm has remained relatively steady, going from 50% in September to 52% in the most recent poll.

Democratic enthusiasm this year is more intense than it has been in previous midterm cycles, which typically engage voters less than presidential years. The 40% who call themselves "extremely enthusiastic" is the highest share to say so in a midterm election cycle since CNN first asked the question in 2009.

Democrats hold a 13-point lead over Republicans among likely voters on the generic congressional ballot, according to a new poll from CNN.

The CNN survey, which was conducted by SSRS and released on Tuesday, found that 54 percent of likely voters favor a Democratic congressional candidate in their district. Forty-one percent of likely voters said they support a GOP candidate.

This is the widest margin of support for Democrats in a midterm cycle since 2006, when the party held a 21-point lead over Republicans among likely voters, according to CNN.

I always suggest caution before ignoring any poll. It could be right due to random blind luck. However, this one probably goes in the “If we get an earthquake, a hurricane, and a firestorm at the same time” bin.

The sample was adults, not even registered voters. This polling was done when the Democrat fanatics were still thinking that they could stop the Kavanaugh nomination. This is completely out of phase with other generic ballot polls that all show moving in the GOP direction. In other words, this one is an outlier at best, but probably pure BS.

I have noticed that the professional liars who show up on the news networks and elsewhere clearly have gotten marching orders from the Democrat Fuherer Bunker to tell their base to ignore all those GOP tanks running around downtown. Panic is in their voice. Wait for the polls that are being collected this week, it will give us a real measure of the mood of the voters. Early indicators are promising.

Nonsense, who the hell would use a poll inorder to not suspect or investigate vote tampering?

ANY blue city/cesspool in the country, take your pick.

Yeah, I’m thinking they’d buy into that.

If you’re referencing Leftist candidates.

They’d see nothing wrong with it either.

A better indicator is whether GOP candidates shun Trump.

He’s popular and fake news ignores it. Watch the well-attended Iowa rally tonight.

Its a more reliable barometer than the fake polls of how things are going.

On November 5th we will be told that the Dems have a 95-98% of winning the House. Late on November 6th we will learn that the Republicans have added 12 seats to their House majority.

Yes, I’m sure Dems are fired up - which consists of the few morons that still consider themselves Dems.

Continuing their downward spiral. I thought they’d already hit bottom. But, they keep finding a new bottom. All I’ve got to say is, keep digging!

...44% described themselves as independents or members of another party.

Probably 90% of the 44% are from the Communist Party!

I think that the politicians have figured it out, we won’t see much shunning from now on except for the odd idiot like Kasich. The question is, have the voters figured it out. Certainly the GOP have done so, but the key to victory are the sunshine Republicans and Independents.

Wow... Just Wow.... They really think ANYONE is buying this?

For them to have a done a national poll and come up with that outcome, they either had HORRIBLE input sampling, or their “adjustment” algorithm is made up fo Unicorn Farts...

No credible polling firm would even publish such garbage if they got that output, because they know intrinsically its garbage.

Watching the news the last couple of days I could summarize:

Our (GOP) analysts: We need to move on from Kavanaugh and focus on the economy.

Their (RAT) analysts: We need to focus on Kavanaugh.

My analysis: If ever our idiots were saved by their idiots this is it!

And meanwhile at Rasmussen President Trump still gets 51% approval against 47% disapproval.

The “genius” Nate Silver had it 78-20 Hillary win at 8:30 on Election Night to Stephanopolous. At 10:15, he was accused by Steph of “changing your forecast” which was exactly what it sounded like to me but which Silver denied, saying at the same time “I’ll have to go with the betting markets, which give Trump the lead”. Silver’s crystal ball apparently had cataracts.

It is. The DNC spends a great deal of money bombarding social media with their propaganda. The Left belives if they just keep repeating the propaganda loudly and often it will become fact. The Right, since they actually have integrity and ethic, has been unwilling to response in kind to this sort of shameless propagandizing.

Only time will tell if lies over come fact now and the narrative matters more the reality in people day to day lives
