50-36 to be precise. Her approval's +9, Tennant's +5.

It's really hard to imagine so much ticket-splitting continuing in West Virginia when the state goes 60%+ Republican for President.

And Obama is at 28/67. Even worse than I thought.

Sure, this may be winnable for Tennant if the environment stays the same, but I think Democrats would be smart to invest their resources elsewhere.

Tennant has her age as good argument, as WV needs seniority and Shelley would be somewhat old to be a freshwoman at Senate.

So, republicans are currently favored, but it's NOT a safe rep seat or likely rep seat.

It's not like West Virginia is an expensive state to advertise.

Actually, it's more expensive than you'd think, you have to buy Pittsburgh media and 10% of the state (and the only growing part of the state) lives in the D.C. media market.

2010 just happened to be Manchin's time. Byrd and Rockefeller were both under 50 when they were first elected.

This is one poll after the announcement. I believe it is more like an 8 pt lead. I like this race better than MnT, SD, or Ark.

lol. So now you guys don't trust PPP for accurate results? You trusted PPP on Kentucky, one poll after Grimes announcement. I do think its a bit inaccurate because Obama disapproval is 67%, a bit high even for West Virginia. But I don't think you guys have the right of saying that, especially for praising PPP for accurate results and being "the gold standard". I would also say that Arkansas is a much likelier hold for you guys than West Virginia, while you may like the race better, as of right now, WV is a much more favorable to R's.

Asa Hutchinson will have coattails. SMC remains untested. GOP will gain 3-4 seats and SD is the only safe seat for GOP out of MnT, WVa and Ark.

Tomblin is the most popular pol here, at 47/35. Manchin has fallen from 61/23 to 46/44 and Rockefeller is actually negative, 45/46.

I think that's pretty telling of the effect Obama and the perception of his policies in WV has had... for Manchin to see such a drastic drop.

Actually surprise that Rockerfeller's numbers are that high, he's the only honest politician in the state.

Didn't Manchin also get hit after the Toomey-Manchin gun control bill? I always thought that was part of it.

There seems to be an extremely large disconnect between voters heavily favoring expanded background checks while simultaneously tanking the popularity of people who support them. This happened in the Colorado recalls as well. The NRA is very good at what they do, that's for sure.

Capito is winning 30% of Demorcats. If Tennant can get more of the Dem Vote she can be very competitive.

If this is really the case then Capito's numbers might go down a bit closer to election day as Democrats start to seriously consider if they want to vote for her or not. But it's West Virginia and they will.

We already saw a 5 point poll. Her lead is close to eight and so is Daines, than the 14 pt. poll we see.

We've already established Repass is junky and usually overestimates Ds like it did in the Tomblin race. It's much closer to 14 than 5.
