This is a district where Trump has good approval numbers, Trump won, and is a GOP district. If O'Connor wins, I am going to be concerned about the midterms. The Democrats won the Connor Lamb seat and have picked up over 40 seats on Republicans, and even in areas Republicans have won, you will see that the Dem runs closer than perhaps he/she should for that district. It's important that people vote, but it looks like 7% of Trump voters are voting for O'Connor (which isn't good). Only 3% of Clinton voters are voting for Balderson.

mEmerson is a terrible pollster though.
Also, unlike others who've polled this race, Emerson didn't include the Green Party candidate in their list of choices.
To: Pinkbell
This is an “e-poll”, so it’s skewed in favor of millennials.
Balderson might be doing better with the Deplorables than this poll shows.

(I have already previewed this composition.)
To: Pinkbell
When it's close, you might as well count it as a "D" victory: "found" ballots, "provisional ballots", "overseas" ballots, "military" ballots, voting machine "problems" — all this even before the start of any recount.

Wouldn’t even be close if he was a Trump Republican.
He is a Bush League Republican.

It’s an E=Poll. Why would we even pay attention to it?

POTUS just had a rally to support him, don’t start with this excuse.
Face it the left is extremely motivated by hating Trump, and know the mid terms and special elections is a way to get him impeached. Meanwhile, our side seems to be complacent.
To: Pinkbell
This is a bogus poll. They heavily sampled Franklin County and under sampled Delaware County. That’s exactly what you need to do to skew the poll for the ‘rats.
The poll was also conducted for two days before Trump’s rally. This would skew toward the ‘rats as well.
Adjusting for the bogus skewing, I’d say Balderson wins by at least 4 to 5 points.

President Trump has endorsed several Bush League Republicans, much to my consternation.
McCain for one.
Mitt Romney for another.
It never works out for him to be nice to them.

...with +/-5 percentage points. That's a high margin of error.
To: rfp1234
It’s a BS poll.
Folks in Ohio are on the Trump train.

For Pete’s sake, Pinkbell, this is a damn PR release from Emerson College that Breitbart copied and released.
Learn how to distinguish from blatant, leftist propaganda versus a news story. And stop posting your garbage analysis based on obvious leftist sources.

Why would you have a special election so close to a general? And is the D candidate running those “I want to work with everbody” ads?
