No internals (that I can see) regarding split of those surveyed. Virginia electorate was 36% (D) and 36% (R) in 2016. Hampton University poll (historically, most accurate in the state) had Gillespie up by 7 last week. Not sure the margin is that wide today, but Ed is not trailing by the figure listed in this latest poll. Guessing this one over-sampled Dims (again); Hampton poll had it 42 (D) and 41 (R) and still gave Gillespie a clear lead.
At the link there is a box with the full report (it’s multiple pages - has the full breakdown there).
There is no way Gillespie will lose by 7, that’s just laughable on its face... Akin to the Hillary will win GA, or take PA by 10 etc...
I think this race will be close, I thing best case for the D is they win it by about 3.... My gut on this one, is the D’s hold by 1-3. Love to say otherwise and I do believe that has the R’s run a MAGA candidate they would comfortably win this one... But with a GOPe vs a Generic D, in VA... I see it remaining in D hands, but no way D’s win by 7, that’s just someone smoking the whacky tobackey to be making that claim.
