Some Florida polls from PPP, commissioned by Save Our Care:

FL-18:
Brian Mast (R) - 46
Lauren Baer (D) - 43
http://floridapolitics.com/archives/275350-baer-within-three-mast

FL-25:
Mario Diaz-Balart (R) - 41
Mary Barzee Flores  (D) - 36
http://floridapolitics.com/archives/275349-poll-barzee-flores-closing

FL-26:
Carlos Curbelo (R) - 45
Debbie Mucarsel-Powell (D) - 46
http://floridapolitics.com/archives/275351-curbelo-trailing-newest-poll

Exceptional numbers all around, especially from FL-26. I was under the impression that most internals were showing Curbelo ahead. Either this is an outlier or the race has really moved quite a bit.

18 and 25 are great too, I wouldn't have expected us to be so close to Mast and the fact that Diaz-Balart is only at 41 is surprising and a good sign.

FL-18 was Patrick Murphy's seat and he was able to boot out Allen West in 2012 and hold it by a landslide in 2014, so it's definitely competitive. It's been underrated this cycle if you ask me.

I'm really curious exactly how many seats in FL Democrats actually stand a chance in, because we've gotten a lot of polls that are somewhat similar to these for Democrats in other seats. If you were to assume those were all competitive, it would suggest Democrats have a chance at picking up anywhere from 1 - 6 seats or so, which the upper end of that range being a crazy good election.

I think the thing with FL-18 is that Mast seems like quite a strong incumbent. He raised a ton of money last quarter (almost 900K) and he has a charismatic profile.

The thing about Florida I've noticed is there are very few competitive seats in which Dems are actually favored (only one, actually, FL-27) but there's a huge number of competitive seats where Dems are within striking distance (06, 15, 16, 18, 25, 26, maybe even 12, 08, and 19). In other words, Dems probably underwhelm on an average night, but just a few additional points on the GCB would net Dems up to six additional seats.

Yeah I think 7 would likely be the max. gained, but that is extremely unlikely. FL-06 (DeSantis, Open), FL-15 (Dennis Ross, Open), FL-16 (Buchanan), FL-18 (Mast), FL-25 (Diaz Balart), FL-26 (Curbelo), FL-27 (IRL, Open).

I think picking up FL-27, FL-26, and maybe one other would be realistic.

I think FL-15 flips. It's a Trump +10 district that doesn't have an incumbent, and our candidate is quite good.

From that RNC POS internal poll, some interesting results. They have the GCB as D+9, but framing the the contest as between Pelosi aligned candidates and Trump aligned candidates puts it at D+5.

Those are definitely good results for Dems, with all incumbents well below 50, but keep in mind... If they polled all those, they probably also polled other races such as FL-15, FL-16, FL-27, and maybe FL-06. Let's see if any of those get released.

An Iowa poll by Selzer for the DMR will be released tomorrow.

About time ... to see where the Gov. race really stands right now.

How is the GOP doing this well? In 2012, there were several Republicans who made rape comments and got destroyed in the polls (deservedly so). The whole Kavanaugh controversy is like that 10 times over, yet they're still doing as well as they are?

They aren't really doing that well... lol. Plus, we are in an extreme partisan age right now.

Kavanaugh isn't on the ballot. However, Republicans have been way more pro-rape lately.

That's a very strange poll.  The GCB looks really good for Democrats, but Trump's approval looks way too high to be consistent with the GCB number:  Approve 46 (strongly 38!), Disapprove 52 (strongly 47).

The Kavanaugh news is very recent, still very much developing, and hasn't had much time to sink in, and there are not a lot of polls yet after it started to break.

Both of these should be enough to flip at least each of their state Houses, Michigan especially so. Maybe even the state Senate in MI.

Morning Consult had the GCB in Pennsylvania at +9 in their last poll (April) so this is an improvement for the Dems.

If there's a place Dems can do well, it will be in Pennsylvania, as there is still a bunch of lowhanging fruit. Too bad Scott Wallace is anti-Israel, though.
