Ummm Roberts is still losing and at 41%...

Republicans celebrating because their INCUMBENT SENATOR IN KANSAS is "only losing by 3 points". I love this election cycle.

Extrapolating the change from PPP's last poll, Roberts should take the lead on November 10th.

This is generally a very bad idea, from both a common sense and statistical standpoint.

Read almost every red avatar's post in this thread

Iowa is SUPPOSED to be competitive, it's a purple state. Plus there's no incumbent. It would be comparable if Democrats were cheering that Chris Coons was "only trailing" Kevin Wade by 3 points.

Sample is slightly friendly to Democrats IMO

Why do you say that?

Romney vs. Obama '12 numbers. I think that turnout will be relatively similar to 2012 as Democrats are overall more enthused, but I doubt it'll be more friendly to Democrats.

Just a small difference - might shift numbers by a point if that.

Obama won 38% of the vote in the sample...the same as in 2012.

And Romney won 54% of the vote in the sample, while he won close to 60% in 2012.

It's a pretty consistent trend in PPP polls that "someone else/don't remember" are almost always Romney voters.
