David Garcia has a better chance at winning than McSally does at winning by 7

Normally people who complain about polling like that are the biggest hacks

Sinema been leading in every poll except this one. But AZ is a center right state. However, just like in NV, and TX, there is a hidden Latino vote the polls are underestimating

The way this pollster casually promotes mcsally on twitter is concerning, something to look at when analyzing at this poll.

The chief pollster for OH Predictive Insights says the shift in numbers is being linked to the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh and the caravan of migrants headed to the United States.
"If Kavanaugh didn't happen I think it'd be an extremely tight race," Noble said. "If not, I'd actually say the edge would go to Sinema but after seeing the polling - seeing the results - everything else - I think that McSally will end up winning coming election night."

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Didn't 538 say they have a 100% track record?

They've only rated two of their polls, but they gave them a C+.

Martha McSally is sure acting awfully strange for someone who is allegedly up by 7 points.

So, I was going to try to unskew the crosstabs, but it seems that this poll doesn't even have any crosstabs. It is just a news article with no poll details.

Are they somewhere that I am just not seeing? What is their turnout model etc? How can I be expected to unskew it without anything more than a topline?

They are doing a press release tomorrow. They DID have a Trump +11 approval and R+9 GCB in their last poll though, and that was McSally +6. So expect something nuts like double digit Trump net approval and maybe even a double digit R lead in the GCB.

Anything to push a "Democrats are doomed" narrative.

Let them have egg on their face when Sinema, Rosen and Bredesen win, which can compensate for the loss of ND

The loss of Heitkamp may indeed be compensated for if everything goes right for Donnelly and McCaskill, but Bredesen is not going to win.

They've only rated two of their polls, but they gave them a C+.

Given 538's track record perhaps they should be assessing 538, not the other way around.

538's number crunching is the creme de la creme of poll analysis.

I agree, though, that their punditry is mediocre.

Yes, 538 came closer to predicting a Trump victory than nearly anyone else (IIRC, their chance of a Trump victory was around 30% on election day, when nearly all the other prognosticators had the chance at less than 5%). But again, Nate's model is only as good as the polls that feed into it.

This was definitely an Outlier. McSally was leading the RCP by a point and lost by two on ED but only after some weird polls were added in.
