I recall he was down big the last time.
Also, dat Toomey lead. Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers on August 25, 2015, 10:29:31 AM Congrats to Senator-elect Strickland.
Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: The Other Castro on August 25, 2015, 01:38:45 PM Portman is closer this time, right? I recall he was down big the last time. Also, dat Toomey lead. The last Quinnipiac poll was in June, and had Strickland leading 46-40. Not a huge change. Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Senator Cris on August 25, 2015, 03:12:53 PM Congrats to Senator-elect Strickland. Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Torie on August 25, 2015, 05:11:05 PM Portman is just about my favorite Senator (calm, intelligent, cerebral, informed and skilled in the arcane matters of economics and trade and finance, a work horse rather than a show horse, and just what we need in considerably larger numbers to make governance work better). Anyway, I am losing no sleep over this race. I am confident that he will prevail.
I must say Ohio is becoming an annoying state, with all of its protectionist tendencies, which create and allow to thrive such loathsome creatures in my world as Sherrod Brown. Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: ElectionsGuy on August 25, 2015, 05:27:55 PM This is all about name recognition.
Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers on August 25, 2015, 06:00:49 PM STRICKLAND is the ideal candidate nxt to CCM. If we can get McGinty, Kander; Strickland in & Murphy; that will be swell. But Portman isnt safe, anymore.

Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Nyvin on August 25, 2015, 06:49:39 PM I generally feel Strickland is the better candidate of the two.
Sherrod Brown is the star of that state though, unabashed liberal in a Republican leaning swing state. Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Xing on August 25, 2015, 07:04:32 PM Toomey's favorability is 49/26? Nice try, Quinnipiac, but PA isn't a Likely R state like you guys seem to think it is.
Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers on August 26, 2015, 08:23:28 AM The encouraging news; is the Oh senate poll; we know Clinton is a lock for winning Pa 20 electors, meaning McGinty will come around. But, Strickland; like Kander can win.

But, Strickland; like Kander can win. Right, because winning Pennsylvania at the presidential level guarantees that you win the senate seat too. Or wait.... Pennsylvania Presidential Election, 2004 Kerry (D) 2,938,905 Bush (R) 2,793,847 Pennsylvania Senate Election, 2004 Specter (R) 2,925,080 Hoeffel (D) 2,334,126 Title: Re: OH/PA Quinnipiac Post by: Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers on August 26, 2015, 10:31:15 AM The last PPP polls had Toomey up only four points. The Koch bros are spending every last dollar they have in Pa and OH.
Gov Rendell has just announced his support for Kate McGinty. It wont win her the seat, but is better than his lack of endorsement of Sestak. |
