No idea why anyone takes push polling before Labor day seriously. It’s never been accurate, never been a good predictor of the final outcome of the election, and even if it were... the campaigns have time to react to it and spend money accordingly.
Oz is likely down in the polls and will stay there for a while because the primary was a heated battle among three flawed candidates who were, at best, second choices because Sean Parnell was forced to withdraw because of Democrat dirty tricks. As October starts winding down, the butthurt are going to “come home” and hold their noses to vote for Oz because they’ll realize how much of a socialist Fetterman is (I think his tiktok-style campaign and hokey everyman dressing style is going to turn off older voters as well.).
Close polling actually does good for Oz and someone on his campaign already knows it. If he were up by six points come election day, Republicans would feel more free to cast protest votes and he could easily lose in a close race.
Mastriano and Oz have opposing weaknesses and opposing strengths, I think they’d be smart to work together and help each other out where it made sense (Oz helping introduce Mastriano to counter the scare tactics targeting suburban women, Mastriano taking some of the stink off Oz in the hinterlands), but that’s up to their campaigns to figure out how to win.
These polls this early mean nothing.
