NV was not an expected battle for Senate, right? I'm wondering how much of a buffer the Rs may have with this recent momentum? 53 seats?
WV done
Montana done

that is 51 GOP

Ohio Moreno would be 52
Hovde in Wisconsin would be 53
Rogers in Michigan 54
Sam Brown 55

I don't get the confidence. Looking at swing state polls on the main sites, they are all extremely close.

These betting odds markets are meaningless.

Coming into this election cycle, Nevada was one of the top targets and Brown was the preferred candidate. He has struggled in polling, however. I do think, unfortunately, his appearance has been difficult for some people to get past.

Still so odd to see Harris up in NC, but Trump carrying Mi, NV, and PA

NC is historically hard to poll and now with a sizable part of the state still without power or dealing with rebuilding, I would imagine it's even more of a challenge.

Isn't OH the next most likely flip after WV and Montana?

Unless they've overcorrected their weighting to account for the shy Trump voters of 2016 and 2020. Very real possibility.

The issue isn't shy Trump voters anymore.

It's that after 8+ years of political realignment Trump/GOP voters now skew both more low propensity and working class.

As lower propensity voters they are less likely to pass "likely voter" screens, and working class voters are harder to reach/less likely to talk to pollsters.

Also, if we're being honest, most of the media/university polls survey who they survey and weight their polls the way they do to skew Democratic ON PURPOSE.

They almost always overstate Democratic support, usually outside their own margins of error, compared to actual election results, and the mainstream media/polling industry just keeps pretending that their polls are accurate reflections of reality anyway.

I looked back several pages and not sure if this has been posted yet, but Moreno in Ohio internal polling has him up three points over Sherrod Brown.

https://www.axios.com/2024/10/17/moreno-brown-polling-ohio-senate-race-crypto

Apparently there's a new Morning Consult poll showing Moreno up one. Rasmussen now has him up one. The morning consult poll has not hit real clear politics yet.

In a poll of sorts, I read that 49 out of 67 sheriffs in PA have endorsed Trump.

Races often break in the last few weeks as the undecided decide. Trump has closed strong in his previous two cycles, so this is in line with what we have seen before. I also do think pollsters want to ultimately get their final poll correct.

I am not very good at X but I think that 93% number may be fake news. I cannot find it anywhere other than being posted and reposted in that graph. Nothing on Nate Silvers page or on Real Clear.

Eric Daugherty is combining a couple of sources. First, he is looking at the current RCP national average that has Harris +0.9 and then looking at a table that was created a while back that gives the probability of winning the electoral college based on the difference in the popular vote.

I think the claim is that the Silver Bulletin (or rather Nate Silver) agrees that if Trump loses the national popular vote by less than one he has a 93 percent chance to win the EC, because the battleground states are to the right of the NPV.



Nate himself (via his algorithms/weighting of recent polls like Quinnipiac/Redfield etc) does have Trump closing/moving in the right direction still:



Sorry if previous post was misleading.

What's your take on this one? You think they've corrected the hidden support or you think he'll overpower again by same margins. I think the hidden support has grown A LOT since 2020
