Pretty unimpressive margin.

No Republican is going to win statewide with Trump's approval at -15.

Let me guess: If it was Johnson +1, it would be titanium R?

My guess is that Johnson does slightly worse than in 2014? Lean D anyways.

Crazy to think how awful 2014 was for Democrats, except in Minnesota where they did even better than 2016.

I expect the map too look pretty similar. Waltz probably does a bit worse in Western Minnesota, wins Dakota, Olmsted, and Washington counties, and is stronger than a typical Democrat in the southern tier.

Unlike the "experts", I think this is more winnable for Republicans without Pawlenty, but it’s still going to be a difficult race for Johnson. Lean D, although an upset wouldn’t really surprise me if Republicans are having a better than expected night.

Yep, Walz is in huge danger of complacency. Johnson seems to me the type to make a late bounce the way DJT did nationwide 2 years ago.

Waltz and Smith are likely winning by 10+ in the end, because the Indys are leaning DEM.

Klobuchar wins by 20+

I have to agree with this. I would expect Walz to be leading by high single to low double digits, given that Minnesota is still, generally, a Lean Democratic state, and given the national environment. But it is still early in the campaign season.

Agreed. I'm thinking of the 2010 PA-SEN race.

Prediction: 41% of the vote ends up roughly being Johnson’s final numbers.

Huh this is closer than I thought it'd be, but maybe people more knowledge about Minnesota politics are unsurprised.

Good! I hope Tim Walz continues to poll like this from this point onward. If the Minnesota DFL can withstand two GOP waves, it can definitely win this forthcoming election!

I'm pretty confident Walz will win.  He's likable, accomplished, ticks the right boxes... and doesn't wanna go dismantling the system the DFL has kept going for decades now.  The Minnesota economy is doing better than any point since the mid '90s.

Keep in mind no Republican has won statewide office since Tim Pawlenty's 0.9 point plurality margin in 2006.  The MNGOP's choices were an unpopular former governor and the losing candidate from last time.
