Even if one were to assume this poll is accurate (I don't), I'd say it bodes well for the GOP.

A 7 point lead NATIONALLY doesn't mean much when you consider population centers like IL, NY and CA overwhelmingly poll for Dems.

What matters, especially for control of the House, is how the voting shakes out for individual races.

NBC has been locked in competion with CNN for the most left wing biased propaganda outlet out there for months now.
Yeah, NBC, we believe you, I’ll just stay home and drink my sad day wiskey to get ready to lose on Tuesday! NOT!

Actually, I voted by mail a couple weeks ago.

Fake slanted poll. If NBC is only givin the Rats +7, its half that in reality, at best. I always add 5 points to the GOP/Trump in any fake news poll.

Rasmussen has it at Dems +3 so thats about right

From what I seen he might be rallying a sizable group of blacks to the GOP side also

The last I checked Rasmussen had the Dems with only 3 percent generic lead as of October 31 and for the period ending October 25, 43% surveyed see the country heading in the right direction versus 53% saying it is on the wrong track, a gap of minus 10. At about this time in 2010, it was 32% saying on right track versus 64% saying on wrong, a gap of minus 32.

Yup.

A national lead is meaningless. State by state results matter far more.

They always have but such polls are very expensive to do and moreover they don’t fit the narrative.

We can expect a result similar to 2014 or 2016.

Poorly educated and easy to command. Oh and they’re less affluent country bumpkins. Got it.

I just laugh. Taunts and insults are all they've got.

Our bumpkins are vastly over matched by the “poor, uneducated, urban, minority and vicious masses.”

I’ll take our bumpkins any day.

We should have hammered the illegal issue weeks ago. The GOPe would be happy talking about the corporate tax rate x infinity, but MS-13 moves the base.

I heard on the Collusion News Network the Democrats had a 70-point advantage and there is no point in any Republicans even bothering to vote.

“What are the numbers for registered voters? Those are the serious ones.”

Actually the likely voters is the one to take serious. It’s hard not to get a little discouraged when you see a seven point Rat advantage 2 days out. I keep thinking that it’s common sense you would look at why you got it so wrong in 16 and fix it, so this worries me a bit but we know nothing about the weighting of the sample.
