Fabrizio, Lee and Associates for Secure Democracy/LaPolitics.com - LA: Generic Republican +4

[pbrower2a]

As a devout Catholic partially of French origin, Biden could be a better match for Louisiana than any other Democrat.

The only question of whether this poll is valid is whether it has a built-in Democratic bias, as it sounds as if it comes from an advocacy group. Still, how good is the pollster?

I have seen some incredibly-bad polls for Trump in unlikely places, including neighboring Arkansas. I question at this stage whether anyone could interpret generic Republican" as anyone other than Donald Trump and "generic Democrat" as anyone other than Joe Biden. Things could be tightening in some usually "strong R" states, but far from as much in Louisiana than in Texas.

It's a Republican firm, and one of the better ones. They do McConnell's campaign polling.

Then I must accept this poll as a matchup. I generally reject insider polls unless they tell us something that the pollster's client might not want to see.
