Republican Maine Sen. Susan Collins is down five points to her Democratic challenger Sara Gideon, a poll released Friday shows.
According to a New York Times-Siena College poll, Collins is behind Gideon 44 percent to 49 percent with less than two months before the November 3 elections. The poll did however show that 50 percent of voters view Collins very favorable or somewhat favorable compared to 47 percent who did not feel the same, The Hill reported.

Looks like the NY Times paid for the poll. What could possibly be wrong with it.
Because when a Republican (RINO in this case) does not present a large difference between themselves and a Democrat, the Democrat wins. Republicans don’t want any more RINOS.
She’s toast either way.
I saw a poll for her the other day that said she was 12 down from her opponent this was before Ginsbergs death.
I guess it won’t be too much of a loss for us if Collins is defeated. But how bad is her opponent?

So why not go out supporting your party? I know there has to be something in it for her, but I am not seeing it. The only good thing that can be said about the Dims is that they ALWAYS back their party, ALWAYS.
She supports female genital mutilation practiced by Muslims in Maine by preventing a vote to outlaw the practice in the State Senate.
Spineless worthless bitch; she does not know what the real issue is—defeating the opposition. Another case for term limits.....
She was down 10 2 days ago :)
I think we will eke out one more senate victory.
I could be very wrong :)
She cemented her political obituary today with her Supreme Court pronouncement.
It’s unfortunate, because as bad as she was, her replacement will be infinitely worse.
I don’t believe this for a minute Trump has done amazing things turning over regulations on the fishing and lobster industry there after Obama Biden decimated the industry!! I believe that Collins not backing Trump is her problem with her low poll numbers AND she has NEVER stood for a damn thing one way or the other!!
Sorry, toots. Game over.

Also, last I looked, Collins was more right-wing than every single Democrat except Manchin.
And Democrats almost never vote for GOP judicial nominees. Collins almost always does.
“ So why not go out supporting your party?”
You’d think someone would make it worth her while if she’s going out anyway. Now she’s got some chips on the table.
38? What trash.
She saved the Kavanaugh Supreme Court appointment recently despite her RINO record. She's fighting for her political life. It's far better for her to continue as a Maine Senator than to turn the seat over to any Democrat IMO.

They had 57 Democratic senators. Not only did they not vote in lockstep against Thomas as they had against Robert Bork, they dared not filibuster Thomas’s nomination. That’s one reason to nominate Lagoa. It will win the GOP Cuban and Hispanic votes during the polls, and give the Dems pause about voting against her. Do they fell lucky? A Democrat who voted against Thomas may have lost his seat as a result.
