That won't help Trump in 2020. And Rasmussen is the least reliable pollster. No surprise you bring up that one. Trump brings that one up a lot.

When you have one candidate getting millions of more votes than the other candidate, you would probably figure the odds were in that person's favor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Gal Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 It is always interesting watching primary results come out. The only signs I saw locally were for two for Kathy Hochul, and I swear it was her putting them on her front lawn (more likely someone that looks a lot like her since it was just the other day). Except for Cuomo and all the uncontested Rs running, I couldn't say how any of this is gonna turn out. I am shocked how many have voted for Cynthia Nixon. Cuomo really is hated if that many people will vote for that nut. I hope the RNC gives Molinaro some cash so he can put up a decent fight. I wonder if Nixon's Working Families line will peel off any votes from Cuomo in the general election? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he meant the national polls were pretty darn close to the actual outcome (the aggregate of all the polls had Hillary at around plus 3 and she finished at plus 2 nationally). The state polls were the problem in the Midwest states (PA, MI, WI) and North Carolina where Hillary had a slight lead and she under performed by about 5 points swinging those states to Trump. She over performed in Colorado and Nevada. 14 hours ago, B-Man said: 2016 Election Forecast Updated : Nov. 8, 2016 Who will win the presidency? Chance of winning Hillary Clinton........................................Donald Trump 71.4%....................................28.6% https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/ Sadly, this was the projection model giving Trump the best chance to win based on the available polls.

Almost triple. Nixon got about 200,000 more votes than Cuomo did in 2014. Republican turnout would have to be massive to upset Cuomo in November.

Hard left Progressives in NYC hate Cuomo that much. They must be thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but I their underlying unstated premise is that polls can't be trusted because they generally show Trump as unpopular. Anything that reports the truth is suspect in Trump supporters eyes.

He loves them the same way he did with his Trump University scam. Phil Housley's wife is behind in her Senate race. That would be strange if she won and then started running for President or something. Sabres post game press conferences would never be the same. https://kstp.com/politics/kstp-surveyusa-tina-smith-holds-single-digit-lead-in-us-senate-race-11-percent-undecided/5067874/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
