7 day poll.

I predict Herring to win by about 1. I believe this is the most likely statewide race to flip and I believe Herring will be in real trouble if the gubernatorial race is within 2-3.

Herring won by under 1,000 votes in 2013 and underperformed the governor in 2017 as well. Despite polling showing him doing slightly better than McAuliffe, I don't buy it yet.

Keep in mind, this race along with the lieutenant governor race aren't getting as much media attention. There's definitely potential for one or possibly both to turn into sleeper flips.

This is my opinion of course and if I'm wrong, I'll gladly accept I'm wrong and I could plausibly be wrong in both directions. I could easily be wrong in the fact that Miyares does squeak out the win, or I could easily be wrong in that Herring wins by several points and does in fact overperform McAuliffe.

Herring by 2 - 3.  There will be some moderates who vote Youngkin and Sears but prefer a Democrat as AG.

Herring +4.5. Don’t buy that this is the most likely statewide race to flip (I think GOV and LTGOV are both more likely to flip in that order).

If Herring loses, you’re looking at an epic bloodbath.

Miyares by less than one.

Ayala's going to dramatically outrun both McAuliffe and Herring, and set herself up nicely for 2025.

The anti Miyares ads are devastating.  My prediction: He's gonna do pretty bad.  He might even do worse than Sears.

Herring by a bit more than McAuliffe, maybe 3-4%.
