New Poll: McAuliffe, Youngkin tied in Virginia governor race
The Hill ^ | 10/25/21 06:40 AM EDT | BY JULIA MANCHESTER

Posted on 10/25/2021 5:08:40 AM PDT by RandFan

Democrat Terry McAuliffe and Republican Glenn Youngkin are locked in a tied race nearly one week out from Virginia's gubernatorial election, according to a poll released on Monday.

The survey from the Republican polling firm Cygnal shows McAuliffe and Youngkin tied at 48.3 percent support each among likely voters in Virginia eight days from Election Day. The poll showed Republicans leading Democrats on the generic General Assembly ballot, 48.7 percent to 47.9 percent, within its margin of error.

The poll also showed relatively high unfavorable ratings in Virginia for President Biden, who is watching this race ahead of next year's midterm elections. Fifty percent of likely voters said they had an unfavorable view of the president, while 48 percent said they had a favorable view of him. McAuliffe, who comes from Biden's wing of the Democratic Party, has tied himself to the president since the beginning of the campaign. Biden will campaign with McAuliffe on Tuesday in Arlington, Va.

The Cygnal poll was conducted on Oct. 19-21 among 816 2021 general election voters. The poll's margin of error is 3.43 percentage points.

Are these the same polls that showed Trump losing by 15 points in 2020 and 99% chance of losing to Hillary in 2016?

The internals must suck for Gov. Blackface. Obama came out of the closet to campaign for him.

Have we any idea who is counting the votes? Has anything regarding voter integrity changed over the past 30 years? Does anyone in Republican leadership believe that 11/3/20 represented the greatest political theft since JFK stole the election from Nixon in November of 1960?

In the most populated, Democrat county, Fairfax, the officials sanctioned organized cheating by announcing they will not be requiring the last four of Social Security numbers to verify mail in ballots...

Anyone know if this was "approved" or not?

Tx to all for the endless “they cheat” posts. This is a republican poll. Does anyone know the accuracy of the polling group?

He’s not running again. The blackface guy can only do one term. But can try again in four years.

Wonder if the dims would be so eager to cheat if the conservative candidate somewhere “Putin’d” the opposition? Just once?

With McAuliffe being as embedded with the DNC as he is, it will be extremely difficult for Youngkin to overcome the vote totals associated with mail in balloting.

I agree with the other Freeper posters. The margin of support must be much greater than this for a Republican to win. Anything close, and the Democrats will pull out a win.
