I’m quite surprised at the margin that Saccone is up by. If the dems lose this by 10 or more it could spell doom for Manchin-Casey-Wolf-Brown-Donnelly because this area trump is still very popular.

Last time this seat was challenged in 2012, the Republican won by nearly 30 points. Further, this is a district which despite containing a significant suburban vote, also contains a share of rural, Appalachian, southwest Pennsylvania, where Trump's support should be much more durable than elsewhere. With that in mind, I'd say these numbers aren't bad at all.

Doesn't matter. All we are talking about now is Trump's brain damage, mental deficiencies, and the gorilla channel
Everyone already forgot about tax reform. Not looking good. It will reflect in the polls very soon. Expect generic ballot to be D+20

I still believe the democrats are going to take back the house. I correctly pointed out that there were several "bad" toplines for Democrats in this poll, and also noted that it was only one poll from a not-stellar pollster, and that Casey had a good approval topline.
With all due respect, it's far more hackish and pathetic to launch a ad hominen attack on someone because they analyze a poll in a way not favorable to Democrats.

This is the heart of Trump country, not a district with tons of Republicans who reluctantly held their noses. It's a bit like Republicans trying to take back the CA districts that flipped in 2006/08 in 2010. By and large, it just didn't happen.
It shouldn't be representative of the national environment or the battle for House control. Could be an early warning to those who think Manchin or Heitkamp are fine, though.

This is a good point. Appalachian Demosaurs could still love the Tax Reform (and Trump), but we can't know if that applies to the rural and midwestern democrats, like those in IA-01 and the upstate NY districts. All though Appalachia and the rural midwest both shifted R heavily in 2016, that doesn't necessarily mean that they will react the same way to Trump.

People are overreacting here, it's one poll from an not so wonderful firm 3 months before the special election. I want to see which other firms come up with, but we should really just rely on fundamentals.

The topline seems OK but I'm skeptical about Trump's approval numbers.
The guy couldn't even break 50 at Alabama and he is at +15 here?

This is the sort of district I'd expect the Trumpish GOP to overperform in. I fully expect Saccone to comfortably win by 8-10 points.

He has risen significantly in the 538 and rcp aggregator since the Alabama election.

Are people seriously arguin that some book written with the express intent of painting Trump in a negative light will shape how the public views tax reform lmao
That's the dumbest assertion I've heard since rain will destroy Northam in NoVA.

Trump obviously has a higher approval in Alabama than the polls or exit poll showed. There was a huge turnout gap due to Moore's toxicity, and thus GOP voters were not making it through LV screens. This deflated Trump's approval among special election voters, but it is certainly higher among the larger population of RVs.
