What the Polls Say About Amy McGrath vs. Mitch McConnell After Her Win As the race for Kentucky's Senate seat forges ahead, recent polling data indicates Democratic candidate Amy McGrath and Republican incumbent Mitch McConnell will run a close competition. McGrath, a retired Marine pilot, earned her spot against the current Kentucky senator and Senate Majority Leader in November's election on Tuesday, as final results from the state's June 23 primary vote solidified her lead over Democratic lawmaker Charles Booker. Booker's campaign gained considerable momentum over the last several weeks, with some June polls suggesting the Kentucky House representative would overtake McGrath for the Democratic Senate nomination. While the majority of polls conducted throughout Kentucky's Senate race so far have reflected support for McConnell over McGrath, results of a recent survey showed the Democratic candidate leading by a narrow margin for the first time. The survey, conducted by RMG Research between May 21 and May 24, showed 41 percent of respondents said they supported McGrath versus 40 percent who said they supported McConnell. When McGrath and McConnell's respective positions on term limits were factored into the RMG Research survey, support for the Democratic candidate increased to 45 percent. Comparatively, support for the Republican incumbent fell to 30 percent. McConnell, who was first elected to the Senate in 1984, opposes congressional term limits, McGrath has said she supports them. The RMG Research report surveyed 500 Kentucky registered voters, who were selected at random and participated in the poll online. Polls conducted later in June again placed McConnell ahead of McGrath in November's general election. Results of a poll conducted by Data for Progress and Civiqs, which surveyed close to 900 registered Kentucky voters between June 13 and June 15, showed 53 percent of respondents would cast votes for McConnell, compared to 33 percent for McGrath. Another 4 percent of those who participated said their votes would go to Libertarian candidate Brad Barron.

88Comrade2000 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Democrats smell a rout — and the chance to control redistricting in 2021 >>> Donald Trump’s collapsing poll numbers have Democrats thinking bigger than just winning the White House and seizing the Senate — they’re imagining a rout that extends all the way down the ballot. Intent on not repeating the mistakes of 2010 under then-President Barack Obama, the party is seizing on a once-in-a-decade opportunity to drive the redistricting process — and reverse the built-in advantage Republicans amassed over House district lines after the last census. From Pennsylvania to Texas to Minnesota, cash-flush Democrats are working to win back legislative chambers needed to take control of drawing congressional maps — or at least guarantee a seat at the table. If they succeed, it would correct an Obama-era down-ballot shellacking that handed Republicans House control and resulted in the loss of more than 900 Democratic legislative seats.<<< The presidency and retaking the Senate shouldn't be the only focus. The current GOP is a cancer. It's vital that Dems get as much control at all levels. We are seeing under the pandemic, just how much of a cancer; the current GOP is. The Dems won't win everything but they need to go all and try to win as much as they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PleaseBlitz Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 https://www.espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/29424379/dream-co-owner-kelly-loeffler-critical-wnba-black-lives-matter-initiative Quote Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.), co-owner of the Atlanta Dream, has written WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert to express her opposition to the Black Lives Matter movement and ask the league to put an American flag on every jersey when play resumes later this month. Loeffler was responding to the WNBA's having approved displaying "Black Lives Matter" prominently on courts at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, where the league will hold its season. The WNBA and its union also agreed to honor women such as Sandra Bland, Breonna Taylor and Vanessa Guillen, who have died in connection with police action or alleged racial violence. ... She told Engelbert that she was "incredibly disappointed to read about efforts to insert a political platform into the league," adding, "The truth is, we need less -- not more politics in sports. In a time when polarizing politics is as divisive as ever, sports has the power to be a unifying antidote. And now more than ever, we should be united in our goal to remove politics from sports." Sitting US Senator decries politics in sports in politically-charged letter to sports league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PleaseBlitz Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I don't think a Democrat, even a popular one, can pull away in Montana. Bullock winning a squeaker is probably the best possible outcome considering Trump is up 9 (according to the poll released today). https://www.publicpolicypolling.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/MontanaPoll071220.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
