Guessing Burke+1 but wouldn't be surprised if either side had a lead of up to five points.

Predict that Walker and Burke will get most of the votes.

I find this very hard to believe. We'll see what PPP says here.

The glorious union buster Scott Walker, champion of the people, is rising up to deliver another big thrashing.

Walker up 46/45 with RVs.

That difference is massive.

Agreed.

Ah, yes, the people who said Barrett would win the recall.

Absolutely no one is acting like Walker is up 7% here. I think Marquette's likely voter screen is very off.

What could've caused this much swing in the past week?

This even goes against all the behind the scenes stuff that has been coming out over the past week.

Walker wouldnt be begging for money if he was up 7, up 1-2 is certainly plausible.

Unfortunately, true or not, this could provide Walker the momentum he needs to make it over the finish line.

No undecided voter gives a **** about these polls. The only ones who do are partisans who decided long ago like us.

Probably an outlier. Even good pollsters get them from time to time. My guess is Walker is winning, but the margin will be closer than his recall victory.

There is always some statistical noise in polls. When a new poll comes out with a huge swing from the last poll and nothing happened between the two that would cause a dramatic shift in public opinion, I tend to be skeptical of the new result, the previous result, or both. If it seems too good to be true it probably is.

On the whole, the bulk of the recent Wisconsin polling has shown Walker ahead. Polls have been wrong before and they can again, but I do think Walker will end up winning because the bulk of the polling has shown him ahead. I do not think he will win by 7 but again stranger things have happened.

I'm not saying it will convince undecideds. But it's going to get a lot of positive coverage for Walker. "Walker way ahead! Walker on track for re-election!" etc. which may depress Dem turnout a bit/increase Rep turnout a bit. It's not going to be a huge difference of course, but in a race that will be decided by a knife's edge it could matter.

Definitely. That's why campaigns will occasionally leak internal polling that shows them in a dead heat or up by 1 when public polling is showing them falling behind: the supporters on the ground  demand a reason to believe they have a chance in order to keep them willing to go out and volunteer and vote.
