Public Policy Polling (9/11-12, likely voters, 8/7-8 in parens):
John Carney (D): 48 (48)
Glen Urquhart (R): 37 (30)
Undecided: 16 (22)
(MoE: ±3.2%)
Former Lt. Gov. John Carney starts strong against businessman Glen Urquhart, with an 11-point lead. While the trendline shows some movement for Urquhart, that can be explained by two factors: First, PPP moved from the registered to a likely voter screen (meaning the sample went from 30 to 38% Republican – pretty much exactly the baseline support that Urquhart is enjoying), and second, Urquhart’s been spending big over the last month on his primary campaign.
To give you a taste of just how douche-flavored Urquhart is as a human being, I encourage you to check out this DCCC tracker video showing Urquhart telling an audience earlier this year to ask their “liberal friends… why they’re Nazis”. Needless to say, Mr. Urquhart can fuck himself.
Meanwhile, the Politico hears some chatter that the NRCC may not spend any money on this race now that they’re preferred candidate, businesswoman Michele Rollins, fell in the primary. Hard not to see why.
Is it me or does the total calculate to 101%?
that the tracker spoke back at him, but Glen kept on rambling the crazy.
I dont know why I’m a Nazi. All right?
You know, a tracker for a house race seems pretty sophisticated to me. Hey one district state peeps, do the AL house races feel like bigger media events out there because their state-wide?
But 11 is okay.
Who knew that Castle’s big move would give us the House seat and cost us nothing?
We had some of these the previous couple cycles. This time, only here.
Rasmussen has Coons up 53-42 over O’Donnell. Of course he didn’t poll DE-AL.
is more narrow than I would like. Still looks good though.
The reason Urquhart is view more favorable than Rollins is due strictly to Republicans liking him more. Democrats don’t know him, and those who do don’t like him one bit.. Once he’s defined, this should be more than 11.
Actually, no. It really needed to be said.
I still don’t understand how Glenn Beck managed to convince the Republicans that the Nazis were somehow leftists/progressives. Criminy, it’s like: the top targets of the Nazis were Jews, gays, the handicapped, scientists, Gypsies, hobos, atheists, union leaders, communists and socialists….in other words, the Democratic base. And who did they leave alone? Conservative white people.
So I would like to encourage Mr. Urquhart to eat a bag of dicks.
Okay, that was a fairly off-topic rant. Sorry. I’m done now.
Didn’t she pander enough to the base?
