PPP poll of South Carolina CD 1, which Trump won 54-40 and Romney won 58-40.

https://www.postandcourier.com/cunningham-st-district-poll/pdf_60d4f8e6-3431-11e8-8249-6361aacaeb48.html

Trump approval: 46/47.

Generic Congressional ballot: R 46, D 40.

Mark Sanford favorability: 44/40.

Reelect Sanford or prefer someone new?  Sanford 38, someone new 52.

Prefer a Republican who will support Trump's agenda, or a Democrat who will work across party lines to get results?   D 53, R 40.

The last four viewed together are interesting, to say the least.  I'm not quite sure what to make of them.

Devastating poll for democrats. How can dems win the house when they are down by 6 in districts like this?

And Joe Cunningham seems like an excellent candidate for this district

Trump may have only won here by 13, but Sanford himself won by 22 in 2016. Bad sign for Republicans if even a Republican incumbent who won by that kind of margin is now leading by less than 10%. Someone like Dave Brat in Virginia or Ted Budd in North Carolina could easily be in a 50-50 race if (potentially a big if, plus all the standard "just one poll" caveats) this is reflective of the national environment.

At this point, I have completely given up on tracking the generic ballot polls. All the pollsters, no matter what result they post, acknowledge the fact the GOP is probably going to lose the House in November.

Just like how they said Hillary had a 95% chance of winning in 2016? 😜

She did.

Tiffany Trump calling it....blue wave imminent:



She's a millennial woman who just graduated from an Ivy League school and she's going to law school in Georgetown. Of course she's liberal.

And, sadly, has as much reason to hate The Donald personally as anyone.

Actually, 538 had her at 70% or even less during the final week, meaning Trump was as likely to win as a .300 hitter in baseball was to get a hit -- something that happens all the time.

So many pollsters are bouncing between low double digits one week to mid single digits the next, then back to low double digits.

(The electorate hasn't actually changed their opinions since June of last year. Special elections have been very similar since then except slightly better for democrats since January)

I think this is basically true, and it is hard to imagine anything changing that before November other than a major economic downturn or a war.

I agree. Variances in polls because "yay I got my tax return" or "boo the Dow went down 900 points today" won't factor into the decision voters make at the polls, as the specials have shown.

Not a poll, but 47% of Dem-held House state legislative seats will go uncontested this midterm.

He's talking about state legislature seats, not US House seats.

PPP: Rod Blum has a -20 (34/54) approval rating in IA-01

Trump (41/54) and Paul Ryan (26/61) are also underwater. The tax bill is extremely unpopular (31/53), while the ACA is popular (47/35).
