Reminder that the margin narrows as the Libertarian (who will surely get votes) is put into the equation. This is by no means over. Senator Evan Bayh would like to say hi.

The Donelly vote could drive some GOP voters to the polls. This definitely doesn't help him. While the hurt will be minimal, minimal matters in a tossup race.
Judging by the Blue Avatars here, I find that to be the case.

I think this a good vote from Donnelly's point of view.  He isn't going to forget that the constituency/voting bloc that put him into power was voters who were uncomfortable with Murdock's comment on rape.  Those voters, even if plenty of them are leaning Republican, will be comfortable with Donnelly's statement regarding sexual assault.  They put partisanship aside and voted for a Democrat in the face of rape comments; that same Democrat then went on and said that we shouldn't confirm someone to the court who has sexual assault allegations against them.

So yeah, if anything this gives lean Republicans who voted for Donnelly a "I made the right choice" moment and gives them more comfort in voting for Donnelly a second time if they were considering drifting back into their natural Republican column.
Yeah, the same people that voted for DJT after Access Hollywood. Things have changed since 2012, and we need to accept the new reality.

Are a lot of the Republican voters in Indiana hardcore MAGA til the end types or are most more reasonable?  Just doing a quick search of Donnelly on twitter and every other post is some MAGA person talking total crazy trash about Donnelly. (same regarding McCaskill)
I'm not sure you were looking at Indiana locals or Russian bots.

I can see the momentum shifting toward Braun the same way Bayh collapsed last year.
