CA-20/SurveyUSA: Rep. Jim Costa (D) trailing by 10

SurveyUSA will look like the biggest geniuses or the biggest idiots next week.

Couple of problems with this poll. The district is only 31% Republican, yet this poll has 40% Republicans and upped the amount of conservatives from the last poll.  It's very hard to trust SurveyUSA, they've been very messy this year.

Well, this is a midterm election in a Hispanic-majority district.  I wouldn't be all that surprised if Republicans wildly out-perform their numbers here.

Actually California is one of the few states where there is no enthusiasm gap, perhaps due to the marijuana legalization proposition.

Now we can safely say that this poll, along the Oregon one showing Schrader trailing by double digits, were some of the worst of the year.

Survey-USA hasn't embarrassed itself so much since the days of the Indiana/North Carolina primaries. They can thank Scotty's Hawaiian whopper for avoiding the Golden Raspberry.
