This whole thing is terrible, both on the presidential level and here. Russ Feingold ahead by 1 while Burr is losing?

Junk poll!

[Heisenberg]

My analysis:

Nevada: This would be great news for Republicans! It's a left leaning poll, and while the presidential race is tied, Heck outperforming Cortez Masto is good.

Arizona: Looks like fool's gold as usual.

Pennsylvania: See Nevada (minus the presidential race being tied).

Ohio: As I suspected, Strickland has potential to outperform Clinton, and Trump/Strickland voters are not too hard to imagine.

New Hampshire: Fool's gold for Republicans.

North Carolina: I suspect this is totally junk. I can't imagine Clinton leading by that much, unless rural whites are breaking for her, and/or Never Trump Republicans are still unhappy with the Donald. I also can't imagine that many undecideds in the Senate race, especially since there aren't nearly as many in the presidential race.

Wisconsin: Far more undecideds in the presidential race than on the Senate race. I suspect the Republicans are all fully set on Johnson, and that 45 or 46 is his ceiling. The state is very polarized, but I think nearly all undecideds will break for Feingold. Johnson won't lose by double digits, but Republican groups are right to write him off.

All around nonsensical poll. Throw it in the trash.

Junk.

But really, taken together with the national horse race results, these Senate results are beyond absurd.

Toomey is up 8 in a poll that has Clinton up 9 and was paid for by Democrats. That race is over unless 2016 is 2008 all over again on the senate level, and even then it would be a Toss-Up at best.

Or it's just a stupid poll that isn't worth reading into?

Wisconsin better not be that close...
