I actually wish that Scott Walker hadn’t run for a third term. I firmly believe no one should serve more than two terms in an executive position. If you can’t get it done in two terms you won’t get it done in three. Also, even the best will wear out their welcome. He should have stepped aside and let someone else run. That said, I hope he wins of course.

I expect Walker to still win, but Vukmir was weak in the primary against Nicholson in areas where Trump excelled and a visit on her behalf into these areas really could make a difference.

Trump at least would have a shot at dragging her over the finish line...Walker (and I love what he’s done for WI) does not.

Its really disappointing to see.

Hopefully Vukmir surprises.

Hi LS, thanks for the details

Any news as to how Cox is doing against Newscum?

Also, Trump scheduled to have a rally for Cox this month...should give a boost.

I also noted the sudden dearth of GA polls. FINALLY one came out this morning. Kemp+2.

Wack Job Rat Kyrsten in Arizona is dealing with Martha McSally in very limited ways:

(1) There are commercials which just call Martha McSally a liar who lies about everything. Lame.
(2) Kyrsten claims that Martha McSally wants to hurt people who need health insurance (lie), she’s trying to prevent people with pre-existing conditions from getting healthcare (lie), and she’s trying to cut Medicare benefits (another lie).

That’s all that Kyrsten and her (outside of Arizona) Rat operatives are fighting back with. Due to the recent scandals about her that broke last week, she’s no longer running her “I’m a reasonable moderate, fiercely independent” commercials. She’s been outed for the radical Feninazi Chuck Schumer-licker that she is.

I don’t know what Kyrsten’s poll numbers are this week, but McSally was ahead by 6 points before the scandals broke.

I don't think the media
liked the results so they are waiting for the Kav hearing impact to wear off more .
The polls right after the hearing were brutal to the Dems .
It ruined the media narrative .
The last legit FL poll was pre Kav and it was a tie .

Not peculiar at all. That’s where their base is.

I hope you’re wrong about McSally losing. While I don’t trust her to not be a RINO; she would still vote with the pubbies and Trump most the time.

The very last thing AZ needs is a communist enema senator.

Personally, I think the Republican comeback is partly due to these “progressive” candidates finally being looked at by the voters (now that summer is over). In Kentucky CD-6, the Democrats are running an abject leftist loon, Amy McGrath. Sure, she was a Marine Corps pilot. And she went around Kentucky telling everyone how centrist she is. Now, the voters are seeing ads about how she was up in Massachusetts calling herself the “most progressive person in Kentucky” and “You’re damn right I’m a feminist.” There’s a reason why the progressives have to hide their beliefs outside of pockets on the coasts....

Thanks, LS. Sounds like this may be an exciting election night, atypical of midterms.

BTW, a leading D analyst did his board and it's close to mine, saying Rs hold by 8 seats.

If true, said person will lead a very lonely life; no cocktail party invites, and massive abuse from the rat masters.

It is disappointing though. I live in an upscale neighborhood and Beto signs are everywhere.

But it is a sign of the times. With Trump, the Rep base is now working class instead of the white collar class. The upside is, the working class vote wins presidential elections!

It looks like KS3 will be a loss. Polls are stale, but a new one will be out in a few days. KS2 could go either way, Watkins (R) is a rookie and making rookie mistakes. Otherwise, he would be an easy win.

What I'd love to see is a Trump rally in the central valley of California, in Jim Robinson country.

If Trump held a rally in Fresno or Bakersfield in support of House candidates like Elizabeth Heng (CA-16), Kevin McCarthy* (CA-23), Devon Nunes* (CA-22), and David Valadao* (CA-21), he would certainly boost the chances of Heng flipping Democrat Jim Costa's district, while giving the farmers of the central valley something to rally about.

The CA-16 seems to be the only D district surrounded by R's in the central valley.
