We really need some polls here. Why the pollsters keep flooding us with us with useless polls of Florida and New Mexico that all make clear the race isn't close instead of focusing on competitive races like Connecticut, Indiana or ND is beyond my understanding.

North Dakota and Indiana both ban robopolling.  That greatly reduces the universe of pollsters willing to poll those two states and makes polling them more costly.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Heitkamp is a very good candidate for North Dakota, while Berg is a very lousy one. Heitkamp know how to personally connect with the voters while Berg is described to have a "grocery store problem".

I can't rule out Berg winning, considering the race is a tie, but the only reason an awkward, freshman Congressman who was narrowly elected solely to have a "R" next to his name, is his partisan registration.

Btw, Mason-Dixon has Berg and Heitkamp tied with 47%.
