MO-McLaughlin/Missouri Rising Action (R): Hawley +8

[Landslide Lyndon]

Seems to me that Republican pollsters are trying to flood the zone like Rasmussen did back in 2010.

It does seem odd that we've had multiple R-internals released in the past couple of days.

They are trying to use the temporary flare up in base enthusiasm due to Kavanaugh in order to change the narrative that their defeat in November is imminent.

Clearly the Flake delay was a sinister Republican tactic to extend enthusiasm closer to Election Day.

Actually it was an opportunity for Flake to do some more moderate peacocking before he exits senate stage left.

Honestly, this poll is great news for McCaskill. If I recall correctly, this pollster has never not overestimated Republicans by double digits. Which means that McCaskill has to be leading by at least 2 points.

Of course. It would be even better if it said Hawley +20; that would make this race Safe D.

Speaker Cantor agrees with you.
