Yeah, Madrid is a crappy candidate but this is one of those national atmosphere thingies - I see it impacting Wilson's numbers, but not swinging the district (there is also plenty of state and local atmosphere stuff to partially counteract this - the Dems have been rather naughty of late). In a normal year with no national trends, Wilson would be hitting another 55-45 ish victory. Even with this, Wilson is pulling about a fifth of the Democrats...

I always presume there's some no-name 3rd party that'll get a dissatisfied 1%.  Correct me if I'm wrong here, cause I often am when I haven't looked up who all is on the ballot.  Smiley

There are no minor party candidates in this race. Wink There might be a write-in *thinks of a certain right-wing nut (Orlin Cole) who does write-ins for everything* but it is very rare for that to even come close to 1%. Wink Mind you, there is a highly entertaining write-in in a state house race which might be another matter, but that's another story. Cheesy

The consensus seems to be in favour of Wilson and every poll I have seen shows her leading, but I will still predict this race will be close:

NM-1
Wilson (R) 51%
Madrid (D) 49%

Madrid was supposed to be a superstar candidate, so this is big.

Wink I saw that wasn't going to be the case quite some time back. Cheesy A leftist machine hack is not a superstar. Now, compared with the guy who was going to run before Madrid changed her mind and entered the race, super-leftist state senator Gerald Ortiz y Pino, she's a superstar. But only in that light. Smiley

If the election was held today, Wilson gets 52% to Madrid's 48%.

On Nov 7th, if Iraq dominates the election, Madrid wins 51% to Wilson's 49%. If ethics problems dominate the election, the results will be Wilson's 53% to Madrid's 47%.

If you put a gun to my head and made me pick a winner, I'd go with Wilson.

Close, but Wilson should shade it.
