You ready for this? Not one, not two, not three, not four, but five separate Senate races are within two points in the RCP poll of polls as I write this at 6 p.m. ET, six days out from Election Day.

Fox polls are the worst but 7 Points? Damn that’s is lot 5 days out.
A couple decades ago I heard Rush say that you can just add 4 points to theses polls to adjust for libtard bias, the “Generic Ballot polls” you can add 6 to 8 points. I have paid attention over the years and almost in every case Rush has been right.
This is the Left-wing RCP Poll that averages all of the leftwing polls and adds in a couple of objective polls.
It ALWAYS skews left.
I am in Tippecanoe. What county are you in?
A SEVEN POINT MOE??? This poll is pure garbage!!
Because they're bull squat. Propaganda.
Tipton.
The other county I referenced is Hamilton. One of the fastest growing counties in the country.
I just hope all of those new folks coming here aren’t bringing their liberal ways
Shemp & Stirewalt.
has fox news EVER had a good poll for a Republican or POTUS?
Nope. Not even close.
Braun is up, don’t know if it’s 4 or 6, but there is NO indication whatsoever of D heavy voting in IN.
MUCH indication of very, very heavy R voting.
If Donnelly up by 7 why are they sending Obama to Indiana ?
Tuesday is gonna be fun!
I’m on a strict diet this week to prepare for ingesting all the liberal tears.
Unfortunately, they are.
Hamilton County voted only 56% for Trump in 2016, right at the state average, which was its worst performance EVER in that measure (at least back well into the 1800s) relative to the state as a whole. And it’s not like the state as a whole has moved far to the right.
In the recent past, Hamilton was always at least 12-15% more Republican than the rest of Indiana and often more then 20% in that direction.
It seem(ed) to favor moderate squishes, giving 75% or more of the vote to both Bush I and Bush II and even tired old Bob Dole did well here with nearly 70%. Reagan got a whopping 82% in the 1984 landslide; that’s ancient history now, but shows that conservatives could get votes here too.
I've noticed that for a few years now, it's definitely not your imagination.
Aren’t they all? The pollster are paid to produce a certain result, but they are always paid and never have to explain how bad their results are. These polls will be wrong and they will sell more before the next election that will also be wrong.
First poll I’ve seen where Donnelley polls over 40%.
We should keep one fact in mind. Media polls have an overriding purpose, and that is to draw in and hook viewers or readers. Every media outlet, print and broadcast, covers elections. They compete for viewers/readers. So they look for things that separate themselves from the competition, and create it if necessary. They create drama with polls. Drama draws viewers/readers.
I think pollsters don’t care about accuracy, just throw out any number. They know that it is the last number that counts for them.
The weird thing is that the national polls in 2016 were about right. It’s just that no one looked at Wisconsin and Michigan as potential red states or saw Ohio and PA both supporting Republicans.
Wisconsin and Michigan are both having governor’s races this year, those probably are pretty interesting to watch when it comes to assessing Trump’s re-election odds two years out.
According to a Tweet from Bill Mitchell this morning:
