Cortez-Masto - 42%
Heck - 41%

Favorability numbers seem a little harsh I would say:

Cortez-Masto: 37/41
Heck: 39/45

Well, hope you enjoyed your chances while they lasted, Heck, since they're gone now.

Funny, I didn't know a one point deficit two months out was something you couldn't overcome.

Contrary to popular belief, the Democrats path to a real majority, 51-49, looks narrow. Unless you guys pull off an upset in FL, NC, AZ, MO, or LA, you have to sweep the six seats where you appear to have an advantage (IL, NV, WI, PA, IN, NH).

Yeah, this one is a pure Tossup. Could go either way.

I think Dems will win at least 1 of FL, NC, AZ or MO

When a one point deficit comes after you've held the lead in virtually every previous poll, and in a state where polling consistently overestimates your party, you're in trouble.

There are people in the NV Democratic Party who could've thrown this race (any of their three most recent Senate nominees, for instance, or of their two last gubernatorial nominees) to Joe Heck, but it's becoming increasingly clear that they've finally made a clearheaded decision in nominating CCM. A competent Democrat beats a competent Republican in a presidential year in Nevada.

Historical polling errors don't always show up on election day, or may not show up across the board. In 2014, many believed M. Udall was safe because of a historical polling error in CO. While the polls were off for the governor's race (The RCP average underestimated Hickenlooper by 2.4%), the polling average was exactly right for the senate race. I'm not saying you can't use historical polling errors to construct ratings, but you shouldn't be all "HAHAH! Safe Masto!" based on that alone.

I don't think anyone thought Udall was safe by the fall of 2014. If Heck suddenly surges back into the lead, that changes things, but the way things have been going, it doesn't look good for him. Polling in general doesn't have a consistent bias, but NV polling tends to underestimate Democrats specifically because Latinos are either underpolled, or polls do not reach native Spanish speaking Latinos, who vote even more Democratic. I won't say this race is Safe D just yet, but if Heck is still trailing on election day, even by a small amount, he's toast.

Invisible Obama thought he was right up to election day. And he wasn't trolling, he said it many times and very seriously. Even in the final days, the most he got to was something along the lines of "I know what this data is saying, but I just don't see it happening. The polls are always off.". There was also another guy who predicted on election day that the dems would actually end up with a net gain in the senate, but I'm not convinced he was actually being serious.

I am confident this one will be within 3 points. But if Heck loses it will be one painful loss.

This is the one state all cycle where Democrats have really underperformed their expectations (in polling at least)

I'm standing by my prediction that NV polling will be off again this year. However, even if we assume that NV polling is accurate, Heck has still gone from being consistently ahead to being tied. If polling shifts back in Heck's favor, then of course I'll change my prediction.

I recall posts here saying that since Rauner wasn't leading by a bigger margin in the polls, he was toast. Guess how that one worked out, huh.

I don't see this poll as meaningfully different from the majority of polls which showed Heck up by one. He's outperforming Trump. Pure Tossup still, although I do think Masto will pull it out.

Well,
I don't think Nevada will be so close for Hillary in the end, there are too many latinos and Reid's machine is still alive. So I guess that should be enough for CCM to prevail.

Welcome to the light side!

Anyway, still tossup, but I'd be lying if I said Masto didn't have an advantage.

Seattle values aren't Nevada's values, and they aren't America's values. And they sure as Heck aren't Nevadans values or Americans values.

Dems overlooked Heck who reminds voters of Sandoval and Heller. But, doesn't let Heller off hook in 2018, though.

It's interesting that the Dem Senate candidate in NV appears to be outperforming Clinton at this point in the race....

Hopefully some "reverse coattails" Wink
