Wow. Totally thought this would be a RickRoll. Tongue Seems so out of step with most of the other polls, so I have to assume it's an outlier.

This poll also says that Northam only has 27 percent of whites that same share HRC got in TX.

I'm saying guys, just run Maxine Waters for President in 2020 if things fall to sh**t for Democrats in the midterms. If you're gonna lose, at least enrage the opposition while doing so to make your opponents' blood pressure spike, cuz that's what our politics is now

Good lord, we get it. But this poll is either horrendously inaccurate or every other pollster is horrendously inaccurate. Since they have a history of iffy results, I'm gonna say your jumping the gun.

Hampton is a pretty crappy pollster. These are their numbers two weeks before the primaries.

Highly unrealistic outcome. Looks like they just encouraged/bribed lots of Northam voters to say "undecided".

Gillespie is eating this silly poll up no doubt. Let him have his bit of fun, the little hussy.

There is no way that 26% of Virginia is undecided at this point lol

While I could see Gillespie eking out a win via doing well in NOVA and doing just well enough in SW Virginia, an 8 point win is way beyond the realm of what is reasonable for Virginia. Maybe Gillespie's ads in Nova are flipping left-leaners to undecided, but will any of those voters actually vote for Gillespie or stay home?

There are some weird questions / responses in this poll as well - does anyone know what is up with 96% of roughly a third of the respondents supporting their home town being a sanctuary city (was this only asked of people who live in sanctuary cities?)?

Similarly, it is really odd that more identify as Democrat than Republican, but when you include two-party leaners the Republicans lead by 12. Has anyone asked this question previously in Virginia, and if so is that consistent? It seems almost backwards to me - I think of Virginia as having a large number of left-leaners, though it is possible those voters mostly identify as Democrats.

Who is Ralph Nortdam?

Anyway, this poll is obviously junk, but should we throw it into the average/database?


Keep it out of the database as this outcome is about as likely as pigs learning to fly. If you're constructing a polling average for your own use, giving this poll half or quarter weight might have some merit, but the database can't do that.
