Middle Tennessee State University did a survey giving Bresdnen a 10% lead over Marsha Blackburn I think according to a post here last month. Well that school’s history was formerly a black college. Of course they don’t mention that in WIKI. The description that they seek diversity is they seek non-black students is a big clue. The university is loaded with extreme left academics.
Friends of ours, Caucasian daughter, got a scholarship there(remember seeking diversity). They went to visit the campus and were shocked at how awful the buildings and campus looked. She recently graduated from Mississippi State University and the difference was A+ for MS and a F- for Middle TN University.
So be warned on any fear mongering polls.
It's way too early to be taking polls seriously. But Bredesen did win two state-wide elections during a period when Tennessee had rapidly been turning Republican. He isn't going to be an easy person to beat. Blackburn will have to run a tight, focused, error-free race.
