Big Blue Bellyflop: Polls Show Democrats Losing Bid to Capture U.S. Senate
brietbart ^ | 07/10/2018 | John Nolte

Posted on 07/11/2018 5:59:05 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The latest batch of Axios/Survey Monkey polls shows that Democrats are in real danger of losing three U.S. Senate seats, which means they have no chance of capturing that chamber in 2018. In order to take control of the Senate, Democrats must hold on to all 10 seats currently up for grabs in states President Trump won in 2016. On top of that, they must snatch two seats from incumbent Republicans.

According to these polls, Democrat incumbents in Florida, North Dakota, and Indiana are losing to their Republican challengers by three, five, and two points, respectively.

Another endangered Democrat incumbent, the increasingly embattled Claire McCaskill, is only ahead by two points in Missouri.

Agreed. Every conservative/Republican voter needs to be participate like it’s their last chance on earth. 2016 was a massive lesson in distrusting polls - on both sides.

Alabama looks to have voter fraud under control. The other 49 states ... not so much. You are correct .... the voter fraud will be 25 + million nationwide illegal votes cast In November is my estimate. But if the turnout is high it will be much more difficult for the democrats to cheat

Dems could still win the Senate and House if they just act somewhat sane for four months.

*********************

Conversely, Reps could increase their majorities in the Senate and House if they would just get their act together and get behind Trump.

And if anyone believes there has been voter fraud before, just imagine the level of voter fraud there will be THIS TIME.

They hate this president with a passion I have never seen, and see their ‘progress’ slipping away.

It is now or never for them. They will pull out all stops.

Trump needs to address this- He needs to announce there will be a massive crack-down on fraud with mandatory minimum jail terms of 10 years.

None of this 3 months probation and then you get a standing ovation from your next local democrat gathering.

No Trump supporters have waivered. And many others have seen the light.

“Arizona is also one to consider. All the GOPers are trailing the dem there.”

It is worse than that. McSally is more liberal - by a large margin - than either McCain or Flake. Flake would literally be a much more conservative senator than McSally if he kept his seat! Getting out the conservative vote for someone to the left of McCain will not be easy!

But if Kelli Ward beats McSally in the primary, the GOP-E & many Mormons will gladly cut her throat for challenging Flake, so a big part of the GOP vote will be missing. They’ll cut money to her and whisper lies to prevent her from winning. They’d PREFER the democrat bisexual communist to Kelli Ward!

Sheriff Joe is revealing himself as a corrupt, dishonest, egotistical tool of the GOP-E.

So...my prediction? Arizona is in trouble!

GOP will gain 9 seats. How can that be possible? Prayer. And a careful plan to expose corruption, media disinformation, and those hindering MAGA in a way that brings maximum impact on the election. Plus Trump rallies, tweets, and communications.

Remember, Trump is a fighter and a winner. He is in no way a politician. He saw in the health care vote how one disgruntled McStain kept America worse. Trump will campaign for control of the Senate and House just like he did to be President. He will again be mocked, ridiculed, and underestimated. But he will again win leaving leftists, pundits, and the deceived scratching their heads, in tears, and confused. It will be a good time to be a minister, or a therapist.

I’m on record for 60 Republican Senators.

Pray.

Overwhelming democrats with voters at the polls lowers democrats ability to cheat and massage numbers. High turnout will help to hold down the voter fraud (imho) and I agree with you we must overwhelm them at the voting booths.

In fact, I think the media helped get his message out during the election...much to their chagrin.

Sorry to say I agree with you. I have lived here over 50 years and I have seen the "panting" going on among the yout for the bi-sex one. AZ has been gradually been turned purple and if they can get bi-sex elected it is one more step in the Californication of AZ - stay in California and enjoy the mess YOU made for yourselves!!!

Was never, ever, not for one minute, concerned about losing the senate, even if McTurd doesn’t croak. Ds just had too many vacancies.

What is outrageous is that we have NOT fielded a top candidate in WI, and that Mandel pulled out in OH. Now, that said, we only had one poll showing Mandel up, and that was very early.

In MI, James is just not quite ready. Even with Kid Rock’s support, I don’t see it. That’s why KR would have been good-—his name recognition and MI support would have put him in regardless.

Disappointed in PA, but predictable, as is WV. Every year we say, “Ok, we can get Manchin now” and every year he hangs on. He’ll vote for Kavanaugh and that will pretty much cement it.

We should win FL, ND, IN, and Baris thinks Tester polls way high in MT, so we might can grab that one too. McCaskill always seems in trouble, and is only 2 ahead of Hawley, so this is a tie. Let’s say we net pick up five.

AZ unknown because the primary isn’t til August, and NO GOP candidate will poll well til then. People who support Ward will not say they will support McTurd II, and McSally supporters won’t support Ward . . . yet. Once the primary is over, I think you’ll see different polls.

No take on NV.

We WILL gain TRUMPERS though at the expense of non-Trumpers, either D or R. Blackburn, Braun, Scott, at least, maybe 2-3 more. That will be very important.

My concern is the House, where polling is non-existent and where local issues dominate. Looks like Issa’s district had a D internal poll showing the D up 3, which is really good news. It’s probably badly biased and the district is R+1.

“Blue wave”. The delusions democrats have traditionally lived with. Lately they have not been able to cheat enough to create a ripple and it’s making them more batshit crazy then they already are.

The dems think that if they all piss in the ocean at the same time that they can create the blue wave, but it’s all just a ripple. All they do is attract sharks and the water around them smells bad.

Let’s root for Blackburn but TN has had long-term sentimental attachment to the Democratic Party.

One of the problems is that I don’t think the GOP will attack the democrat in AZ. If McSally wins the primary...well, there are some questions about McSally’s sexual preferences as well. There are only a few reasons in Arizona for getting an annulment instead of a divorce after two years of ‘marriage’. And McSally is already just ‘somewhat’ right of the democrat, so drawing a strong distinction will be tough.

If Ward wins, the establishment will be far more interested in attacking her than even QUESTIONING the democrat! The media will flock to the democrat and paint Ward as a drooling Nazi while the Cheap Labor Express and Mormons applaud.

Arizona is going to be a tough win, if a win at all.

I’d LOVE to be wrong, though!

I really hope you are right. Bredesen is popular and VERY well funded. It’s going to be tough.

Yea, AZ people seem clueless to do anything right. That must explain Sheriff Arpaio’s long-shot candidacy.
