Title: Re: IA: Suffolk: Ernst, Braley tied Post by: Miles on August 27, 2014, 01:20:18 PM The best thing for Ernst is that undecideds skew older and are less likely to approve of Obama.

This is the opposite of what the PPP poll showed, isn't it?

Title: Re: IA: Suffolk: Ernst, Braley tied Post by: Matty on August 27, 2014, 01:58:26 PM Is this more a result of Ernst being able to connect to the Iowa population, or Braley being a moron on the campaign trail?

This is the opposite of what the PPP poll showed, isn't it? Yeah, the PPP poll has undecideds tilting towards Obama. They have 14% of Obama's voters undecided, only 11% for Romney voters.

Is this the closest race in the country at the moment? Title: Re: IA: Suffolk: Ernst, Braley tied Post by: Vega on August 27, 2014, 04:47:40 PM Is this the closest race in the country at the moment? I believe so. Who would have thought a year ago it would be so close. Title: Re: IA: Suffolk: Ernst, Braley tied Post by: GaussLaw on August 27, 2014, 07:09:08 PM () Is this the closest race in the country at the moment? Wow. IA-SEN is the definition of a tossup.

Title: Re: IA: Suffolk: Ernst, Braley tied Post by: Miles on August 27, 2014, 08:04:42 PM Is this the closest race in the country at the moment? Not for long. Yeah, hopefully those undecideds don't start breaking for Ernst and put her clearly ahead.

Yeah, hopefully those undecideds don't start breaking for Ernst and put her clearly ahead. I think I trust the undecided breakdown from PPP as being Dem-leaning. They will break for Braley. Suffolk is the same pollster that stopped polling Florida and Virginia in 2012, because they were "safe Romney"...yeah...it's those guys... Title: Re: IA: Suffolk: Ernst, Braley tied Post by: Never on August 27, 2014, 10:13:45 PM () Is this the closest race in the country at the moment? Wow. IA-SEN is the definition of a tossup. To think if it weren't for YouGov, the RCP average of this race would be completely tied. That's not something we see too often with polling averages. |
