I think he can win. He is only down 9 and MI polls are notoriously bad.
I mean are we just going to take it as a fact that he IS down by 9 because this ONE poll showed it? Don’t get me wrong, I think Stabenow wins by somewhere in the neighborhood of 9, probably a little more, but 1. you shouldn’t take this one poll as the truth when it sticks out, and 2. yes every sane person knows that James still has a chance, but Stabenow also has the advantage, even your prediction shows Stabenow with the advantage.
So rcp was about 4 points off in Michigan in 2016, which isn’t phenomenal but it aint that bad either considering that is around the further end of a moe.
