Just for fun:
If you reset the black vote in this poll to 20% Cochran, 65% Childers, 15% Undecided (which would still be an unbelievably poor showing for Childers if that's what it looks like on Election Day), it becomes 34-34 dead heat with 28% undecided.
This may explain why Childers has gone on the stump for Obamacare. He's trying to bring the black vote back into his column and then hope McDaniel does the rest of the work for him.
I cannot see McDaniel voters casting a ballot for a Democrat. I just can't.
No, but they can decide to not vote for Cochran either. Nobody is forcing them to make a choice.
