Harper is a solid R-outfit.

That means Manchin leads by ~ 10 points.

They had Manchin leading Morrisey 57-35 in November 2016.

Anyway, just like MT, this is Lean D, but with a lot of GOP potential.

Likely D, and this seems like a GOP recruiting failure.

No way, Chris Cillizza and Charlie Cook told me that Morrisey was a top-tier recruit.

Lean D, since Morrisey has room for growth. That said, it's looking like he's going to squander it.

The only growth Fat Pat will experience is around his waistline.

Manchin was never going to lose under a Trump presidency. Even (Evan) Jenkins would of lost

Even if he doesn't I doubt he'll lose over 10% to make this a tossup. Notice this appears to be an R internal and Manchin is winning bigly.

If the Democrats are able to put this race away earlier than expected (and hopefully, Nelson in FL is now putting some effort to save his seat), resources can then be directed to the tougher states of ND and MO.

It's still a longshot, but if the Dems hold the above and can pick up 2 out of the 3 potentials in AZ, NV, and TN, it's the majority.

Yeah the only reason I could see for them making this poll friendlier to Manchin than it should be would be to provide him a false sense of complacency. But that narrative substantially weakens after seeing this poll is not an outlier at all.

As far as republican pollsters go, Harper is actually pretty good.

TBF it's not so much a GOP recruiting failure (Jenkins was as good of a candidate as possible) as a GOP primary voting failure.

This is still a winnable race if the climate improves for Republicans, but given that the best a Republican firm (admittedly more like PPP than an actual internal, but from memory most of Harper's polling errors are to the right?) can do is Manchin up mid-single digits, it's at least Lean D at this point.

Manchin might not be as safe as some of the slight-Trump state Democrats (Casey Jr., Stabenow, Baldwin); but he's the safest of the heavily-Trump state Democrats.

That's a good way to look at it.

Manchin's definitely the least vulnerable of the Romney state Democrats. He's not safe yet, but I could see him surviving even if Democrats underperform expectations.

Likely D, whether Manchin votes to confirm Kav or not. Fool's gold for GOP.
