You know Scott narrowly winning at this point is not super surprising. Not sure why so many people scoff at this.
No, I agree that this is hardly a surprising result, but Morning Consult is definitely not a good pollster, and there’s something fishy about their methodology.
This is obviously a competitive race, and Nelson is arguably more vulnerable than some of the Romney state Democrats at this point (which is not really that surprising anyway), but he should still win by an underwhelming margin in a Democratic wave. The trajectory of this race has been pretty hilarious though, seeing as how polling has continually shown improved Republican prospects here even as the national environment kept deteriorating for the GOP and their national prospects have basically eroded.
