New poll shows Democrat Shalala trailing GOP opponent in a district Trump lost badly

Donna Shalala may be in trouble.

Shalala, a Democrat running in a district that President Donald Trump lost by nearly 20 percentage points in 2016, is trailing Republican TV journalist Maria Elvira Salazar by 2 percentage points in a Mason Dixon-Telemundo 51 poll. The independent poll’s margin of error was 4 percentage points and included a pro-Trump non-party candidate who could siphon votes from Salazar.

...

Shalala’s campaign noted that Trump’s approval ratings in the district in the poll are much higher than expected ...

“It’s difficult for our campaign to accept that this is the only congressional district in the country that Trump is becoming dramatically more popular,” Hernandez said.

LOL! Well, during the same time frame of the Clintoon presidency, when he mentioned the Secretary of Labor, Rush would always call him “Robert B. Reicccccccccccccccccch-a.”

First off there are no more punch cards for voting in Florida. Our Republican Governor took care of that nonsense 3 elections ago! Next this is the witch who refused to pay the housekeeping staff at University of Miami a living wage was $6 a hr now after the strike its $10 a hour. Worst Pres the University ever had an its a great medical school for MDs,RNs, Nurse practitioners, PA, Nurse Gas Passers and centrally located within 5 blocks of I-95 an city buses park at the main entrance, Metro-mover station at entrance. VA Hospital for SE USA next door....She is a clintonistas in a solid Cuban area. Next never ever believe any story from The Miami Herald ultra-Liberal rag...circulation is so bad they have to give it away 4 days a week! What a joke! an they print a spanish version completely full of lies in spanish. We call it the hate paper. Been causing fights between the cau population and spanish communities for the past 25 years...

“My prediction is that she will come up a little short.”

Depends on how they count it. Florida has a history of requiring, at least, 4 to 6 counts, all determining different numbers, so they can get a consensus. Kind of like the lottery. Improves the “action” in the Vegas betting.

Not sure where your reply was directed.

We KNOW there was massive vote fraud in 2016. The Beast’s “popular vote” win was this, and nothing more.

Top of my list would be CA, PA and FL. Anywhere the Dems have total district control, they crank out the votes. The Gore “chad count” was just a public spectacle of this.

If this whacko is wondering at a Trump “shift” since 2016 in a Dem district, I would certainly question the 2016 numbers.

We had better be on our toes this year and in 2020. The Donks have no ideas, no candidates, and no credibility left in their media mouthpieces. All they have left is cheating at the ballot-box. It may be enough.
