ND-SEN: But you are, Blanche, you are

[Brittain33]

Thousands of workers have flooded into North Dakota since 2012 to drill oil. Guess how they are voting? I suspect it is for the GOP.

The oil boom has crashed since then, though. The man camps have been abandoned.

[UncleSam]

As of now, probably either 50/50 or 55/45 Cramer. The reality is that Trump has polarized politics everywhere, and he is enormously popular in North Dakota. Dems won't be able to flood the state with volunteers for a midterm the way they can for a special election (same goes with most other elections honestly), and I doubt that Heitkamp can win without a serious assist from Cramer at this point.

With that being said, Cramer seems more gaffe prone than your typical boring conservative politician, and I have no doubt that he will say something that brings Heitkamp into contention. The only question is how bad his gaffes will be and whether they will lift Heitkamp (along with the environment) to another win.

Recent polling showed that in Trump territory like PA-18, a Trump endorsement had little impact on how people planned to vote. Obama could never carry candidates across the line, why do we expect Trump to do the same?

Heitkamp has no chance against a Republican with a proven record of winning that is well known and represented the entire state in Congress.

Again, more workers have moved there since then. And Berg was a disaster campaign-wise and still just barely lost.

As someone already said, those workers you all keep talking about have left. "North Dakota workers" is going to become the new "rain in Virginia"

It's an internal poll for an election half a year away, and the internal has Cramer up by only five points.

They pre-print one for both candidates for every election so they can be on newstands the next day.

You are the worst poster on this forum, and that's saying something with Sanchez running around.

You'd all have a better time on this forum if you just put Limoliberal on super ignore like the rest of us. His posts don't even show up for me anymore. I only see them because of the quoting.

I'm thinking about it greatly right about now.

It looks like he's gone from concern troll to Krazen. Really frustrating.

Oh no, you don't get to pull that card. We have polls in Colorado showing Gardner slightly down almost 3 years out and you guys pronounce him dead. One Democratic internal shows McCaskill up in the margin of error and Hawley is a goner. Don't give me that selective crap.

Gardner is viewed as DOA due to how hostile Colorado is to Trump and the fact they'll be sharing a ticket in 2020 and Hawley is due the quality (or lack there of) of his campaign

[GeorgiaModerate]

No serious person believes Hawley is DOA, but I do think Heitkamp is more likely to be reelected than Gardner.
