Note Trillo's 17%. Looks like Raimondo's getting off easy.

Raimondo would be in big trouble in a Clinton midterm, but this year, looks like she gets a pass. Lean D, closer to Likely than Toss-Up.

Not sure about this particular poll, but Raimondo would be vulnerable to better opposition than what she has faced this year. She's never been a threat to hit 50%.

Does anyone think Trillo will reach that on Election Day? I know RI has an anti-establishment streak (see Healey), but I think Raimondo should be a little worried that at least of his voters will ultimately go to Fung. I wish they'd poll on second choices for all three candidates' supporters.

Also of interest:

  • <20% are certain who they will vote for
  • Raimondo has a major advantage on public education
  • Fung has no clear advantages but is best on fiscal issues

Raimondo should be worried. She has a ceiling.

Trillo's a Trump Republican to the right of Fung. Healey was strictly a protest vote. I could see the Trillo voters deserting to Fung.

Don't overestimate how many voters acknowledge a left-right spectrum and place themselves on it. RI especially has a number of Trump-style populist conservatives who are loyal to Democrats.

Trump's totals were a couple of points better than the average of the last 4 GOP presidential runs, but in line with Bush in 2004. Trump was still under 40%. RI (or MA) is the most Democratic state in the US and the 2 US reps and 2 US senators from RI have won on average by over a 30% in their last races.

There are a lot of Democrats who are not loyal to Raimondo. That's the real issue with this race. She's under 50% as a Democratic incumbent and that's not normal for RI, particularly since Fung is not a strong candidate.

While Trump didn't hit 40% (he got 38.90%), it should also be noted that Hillary only got 54.41% of the vote due to third parties.
