For what it is worth, PredictIt has Kelly favored over McSally by nearly a 2:1 margin, but Trump is favored in the general election by nearly the same margin.

Arizona will NOT turn blue in the Presidential election this year. You can take that one to the bank.

I'm admittedly less confident in the Senate race.
The margin there was 3.55% last time around. I'm betting its at least less than that in 2020.

I saw a Zagby poll showing a Trump approval rating of 24 percent among black voters.

If Trump even gets 20 percent of the black vote, there is little chance a Democrat can win.


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Zogby is another pollster like Rasmussen... maybe worse... I'd get a dump truck of salt if I were you... but in theory yes but if that happened he'd probably be getting 60% nationally... not too likely.

you seem to like to bad-mouth the Rasmussen poll a lot. But if you look at the 2016 presidential election they called it closer than any other polling service out there.

I haven't heard him bad-mouth any of the far-left leaning polls, such as Politico or Reuters which consistently put Trump's disapproval margin between 11 and 15 points.

I wouldn’t call either of those “far left”... center left if you really want to but they are essentially center more than anything. Politico isn’t exactly Vox or Huffington Post... those ARE far left. Reuter’s is just a news service like the AP... Rasmussen and Zogby are into advocacy and their samples over sample Republicans on a consistent basis. There are some Democratic polls that also don’t pass muster. That said I WILL post any polls that come up on the RCP list regardless of my opinion of them. Someone dishonest wouldn’t bend over backwards to report the numbers honestly. They would just exclude them.

if you look at the 2016 presidential election they (Rassmussen) called it closer than any other polling service out there.
As a matter of fact, they got the popular vote almost spot on.

So they predicted a Clinton win in the popular vote by about 3 million?
