I'm tempted to chalk this up to RMG Research not being a very good pollster, but between this and the NYT poll yesterday, things are really not looking great for Trump with white voters.

Bedwetters and doomers will call this close vote in MT as "empty calories" for Biden and project even more despair that he will lose it all.

Both polls were conducted Oct. 15-18.

Ah, strange that we're only now getting numbers for the presidential race, but it does look like it's the same poll.

We're also seeing huge turnout in Montana.  Already 67% of their 2016 turnout and will probably exceed 100% by election day.

I'm optimistic.  Bullock/Tester know this state, they know how to win here.  And they have way more money.  I would be shocked if the Dems don't outperform their polls.

So the last three polls of MT have been Trump +4, +6 and +7. Not good. He won this by 20 in 2016.

Trump probably wins MT by 6-8 points, which is disastrous. We're talking a 14-point swing (and potentially higher) in a state with a competitive Senate race.

#EmptyCalories

Montana will swing hard for Biden but the Rust/Sun Belts will swing Trump, I think is the argument.

It's unbelievable. I could buy MT swinging by 14 points and rust belt states swinging by a few points less, but you're obviously not going to see massive swings across swaths of the country while the rust belt somehow withstands the swings against Trump.

Again, if MT swings to Biden by 16 points as this poll would suggest, he's going to see swings towards him in lots of other states across the country, including battlegrounds with similar demographics.

This is a Scott Rasmussen poll not a Rasmussen Reports poll. Scott should probably rebrand the name of his polling firm to avoid getting the stink of Rasmussen Reports on him.

Trump won by 100,000 votes in 2016.  A swing in Biden's favor would only be 50,000 moved votes.  Even if he won the state, it's about as many empty calories as eating a single mini-pretzel.

I frankly don't care how close MT is on the Presidential level; I just want Bullock over the edge. I told you guys he was never going to outperform Biden by much and it would take MT being close on the Presidential, so I guess in that sense I hope it's close. 2018 and the high turnout numbers thus far virtually guarentee Biden will do a lot better than Clinton in the state, the question is will it be enough?

Montana is a good bellwether to the non-southern white vote...

Close in 08, Romney in 2012 but still enough to win, a blowout in 2016, and closing in 2020.

Very bad poll for Trump.

Paging MT Treasurer: Should MT be considered Likely R and not Safe R, at this point? I’d be stunned if Biden actually won MT, but it is looking like it’ll swing massively toward the Democrats, even if polls are somewhat off.

Ah gotcha. Still, this is a terrible poll for Trump.
