If only we could get a real pollster here....

Vox Populi is the gold standard now. This looks about right.

Why are only right wing pollsters polling here?

I think it will either be:

Cassidy between 55 and 60
Landrieu between 40 and 45

OR

An exact tie where no one gets 50%+1, triggering another runoff.

Why are only right wing pollsters polling here?

Because pollsters like PPP don't want to embarrass themselves like they did in North Carolina where they trotted out about 20 junk polls. So, you're left with the pollsters who were right this cycle.

Vox Populi was right? I must've missed when Allen Weh, Scott Brown, and Walt Havenstein won.

It didn't  say Allen weh would win, just said he would make it a 6 point race.

They were about some races at least, where PPP was not. See the Virginia poll that I believe you derided.

Folks:

NO multi-state pollster was really good in 2014.

Maybe it was the low turnout of 36-38% or something else, I don't know ...

Their final NH, CO, AK, CT, and MA polls were good.

Told you guys Vox Populi was the new gold standard. They absolutely nailed it.

If you assume undecideds broke 80% for Cassidy.....

Vox Populi was good in some races this year, bad in others. I'll stop treating them as complete junk as I did before Nov. 4, but they're no Marquette.

The final result was 56-44, or +12. So Vox was only 1% off.

I was speaking in terms of actual percentages in the poll, not the margin.
