Oct 14-15, 610 LV, MoE: 4%

Wyman (R) 49%
Tarleton (D) 43%
Not sure 8%

I wish they'd at least let us know a release schedule for everything in this poll instead of having us check periodically to see if there's a race we missed.

Awesome. Polarization sucks, and it's good to see it's not fully seeping in everywhere. A good incumbent shouldn't lose their job solely because of party affiliation, especially when they have almost nothing in common with Trump.

Is there anything inherently Republican about Wyman's job as Secretary of State? How is she on voting rights?

Good poll for Wyman. Undecideds are probably going to break for Tarleton, but she’s already at 49%. Tilt R, I expect a close race.

I’m guessing Wyman will narrowly win, but she’s not safe. Interesting that so many here are so invested in a SoS race in a different state, lol. It’s not like Wyman’s fate here is going to radically change the Republican Party as a whole.

Even then, not necessarily. A poll from October 2016 had Wyman leading 41-37, but she ended up winning 55-45. I think this is Lean R.

It a big fan of the stranger but I do like reading their endorsements. If you scroll down to Gael Tarleton on this article they lay out the main problems with Wyman

I assume you meant to link this article: https://www.thestranger.com/news/2020/10/14/47141697/the-strangers-endorsements-for-the-november-2020-general-election

In which case, yeah, voting against a "Voting Rights Act" sounds bad. What did this act do, and why did she vote against it?

Wait ... Wyman is a R ?

I always thought she's a D.

This probably isn't the best comparison, but I think she's kind of like a Baker or a Hogan, just as a Secretary of State. She's fine at running elections and Washington has (I'd argue) one of the best elections systems in the country, but it's because the entire rest of the Washington system requires that of her and she knows if she steps out of line even a bit, she'll be out of a job, and not because she's uniquely bipartisan or is uniquely brilliant as a Secretary of State.
