Hickman is apparently a bad Democratic pollster, so take these results with a ton of salt.

Interesting regional crosstabs for LA. Landrieu is tying Cassidy in Lake Charles/Lafayette, which is promising if true, but losing around Baton Rouge by 30 (!). Cassidy is known around here, but he's not that entrenched.

In NC, with "definite" voters Hagan improves while Pryor and Landrieu slide.

[Maxwell]

Wow Thom Tillis is terrible.

Also old poll, Ken Buck isn't even in the race anymore.

It's impossible that Cassidy is leading Landrieu by this margin.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Landrieu is much stronger than that, she is below the 50 percent threshold but it is gonna be key to senate control.

These polls are bad news for the incumbents.  If you look through the details, the incumbents have at least double the name recognition of the challengers, yet the challengers are already nearly tied or even leading.  The same poll also shows Kay Hagan is in the same trouble.
