Emmerson Poll: Democrats lead Republicans by 10 points

[Pototan]

A new poll shows Democrats have maintained a 10-point advantage over GOP congressional candidates.

Emerson College released survey results on Thursday that found Democrats have 50.3 percent support from likely voters while Republicans have 39.5 percent support.

Actually, the lead is 10.8%, which rounds to 11. And the nearly 10% undecided will break 2 to 1 for the Dems, IMHO, as election day approaches. There will be a "Blue Wave".

1. That's not enough. It shows we still have trash-brained voters out there

willing to give up their liberties to a bunch of fascist assholes who won't defend out Constitution or democracy.

2. Rick Wilson said add 20 more points to democrats

3. DEWEY WINS! Oooops.

4. National polls could miss by point or two

but they are more often correct. Hillary actually won the popular vote and the poll was off by 2 points.

Truman was a major polling error, but I think polling has been much more accurate over the past 80 years.

What buttresses these polling numbers is that the Democrats have overperformed in every race in the country in the past 18 months. Those are actual voters casting actual ballots and the overperformance from the 2024 presidential election is averaging more than plus 12 points, right in line with the linked poll.

In any event, I'd rather be ahead than behind.

9. Agreed, ahead is better.

My point is not to get ahead of ourselves.

6. As did Taylor Rehmet.

Though no oops.

5. Not that I'm not heartened by 11% + lead, but....

...it should be 50.

7. What lead do we need

to overwhelm cheating?

8. It's Emerson, so it skews heavily to the conservative side.

And it's a considerable skew, they missed the Presidential election by a wide mile.
