If he wins the race, he'll obviously win independents.

Let's see a couple polls from other pollsters first, until then I'm keeping this race at Tilt D.

Well yeah, that's a given. I'm saying I doubt he wins or wins independents, especially after that showing in the primary.

Very hard to see Gillespie winning statewide in a Trump off-year in a state Trump lost by more than Romney, especially considering how much the state's Trump voters seemed to clearly and unexpectedly reject Gillespie's candidacy.

Just because they're rejecting it now doesn't mean they won't eventually vote for it.

They'd prefer a hard right moron like Stewart, but they'll vote for Gillespie compared to Northam.

They'll probably come around to voting for Gillespie. Either that, or they won't vote at all.

Also, polls just after the primary is over are notoriously bad. But Democrats will underestimate Gillespie at their own risk. Nearly upsetting Mark Warner was a wake-up call for VA Dems, and they should be more wary of him this time, even though this may be an anti-GOP environment.

It may be an anti-GOP environment compared to 2014, but Gillespie got nearly no resources that year, it'll be far different this time.  The Governor's association will put a good amount of money in this race, Gillespie most certainly will have support from the national GOP, and Northam might have tacked a bit too far to the left and that will hurt him.  Tilt D for now but I expect this race to move back to toss up before November 7th.

Dems do have the lead in this race but I do see it coming down to close contest.  Terry McAuliffe did win a nail biter, too.  Election day is still 6 months off.

Gillespie is getting 31% of African Americans in this poll, just FYI.

It would be my luck that the year I vote Dem at the top of the ticket, they lose.

lol.

This is a Republican poll and Clinton won VA easily. I myself supported Periello, but Northam should clean up fine.

Tried to read the crosstabs, but couldn't figure out what was going on.  This is a very strange poll.

Big whoop she beat the clown by more than 4 in Virginia. Not that impressive.

The top line only includes those who say they are 'certain' to vote. Northam easily wins those who are merely 'highly likely' or 'somewhat likely'to vote by between 10-15 points.

Always look at cross tabs and never at the top line kids, lol

I'm sure Bernie would've beaten Trump by 70.
