It was always obvious Menendez was going to underperform, so this poll is no surprise. I just hope the piece of sh**t doesn't drag down the Dem House candidates in NJ (that goes for piece of sh**t Pritzker too in IL.)
I'd argue it could go the other way around. People coming out for the competitive house races who end up padding Menendez's margins.
Reverse coattails aren’t really a thing - people always show up for the bigger ticket races more frequently than for the smaller races, even if those are the competitive ones. Is there any example of reverse coattails? (Bear in mind that coattails in general really only applies to presidential races anyway).
