GOP leads in generic congressional ballot by 2 points: WSJ poll
The Hill ^ | 11/01/2022 | JARED GANS

Posted on 11/01/2022 8:00:37 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Republicans lead Democrats by 2 points on a generic congressional ballot with Election Day just one week away, according to a new survey.

A Wall Street Journal poll released Tuesday found 46 percent of registered voters would vote for a GOP candidate for Congress if the election was held today, and 44 percent would vote for a Democratic one.

The GOP’s lead is within the margin of error but an improvement for the party from the Journal’s August poll, which found Democrats leading by 3 points.

Pollsters found that abortion appears to have become less important of an issue than it was during the summer. Democrats started closing a gap with Republicans in the aftermath of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade in June, but inflation and economic concerns have remained the top issues that voters list in polls leading up to the midterms.

The Hill is funny. Just yesterday they had the GOP down bigly in a NYT poll.

This is insane. Does anyone remember so many mailed-out/mailed-in ballots floating around before 2020?

I don’t recall this ever happening in an election.

There were the military ballots which made a difference in Florida 2000 election. But of course many in the military would be on ships, stationed abroad, etc.

But never do I remember so many ballots wandering about willy-nilly before 2020.

Voter fraud doesn’t matter when it is punishable by death like it is now.

The Hill’s only purpose is to monetize the emotions of leftists.

Wait for the actual vote. Cheating? Sure, but just like in 2016, their cheating won’t be able to defeat the tsunami wave of FED UP voters.

Stick a fork in the Demonrats and Progressives, they’re DONE!

1) In most states, you must live where you are registered and vote from where you live. But here in Fulton County GA The voting instructions followed by the election officials do not say that.

2) I voted a split ticket,some from each of the 3 parties today.

3) When I went to have my votes counted, the vote tally on display was 4060 idicating the number of people whose votes had been counted by that vote counter. I was told “Put your ballot in and see it counted and the tally go up by one in 7 seconds. I waited 7 seconds...and more. The Poll worker said, “Well maybe a little more than 7 soeconds”. I waited another 20 or 25 seconds. Nothing. I walked away and did not wait any longer. The poll worker is not responsible for the poor design of the counter. I suspect the counter is designed for straight ticket voting and has problems with us who split our ticket.

4) How many in GA realize that the Democrat for the Education Spot is more Republican than the Republican nominee? The Democrat is for Private Schools and parental control of education. The Republican rubber stamps the teachers union and favors professsional brain washers control of Education.

As a result of January 6 and FBI terrorist watch lists, conservatives, Christians are not responding to surveys and pollsters.

according to a new survey... A Wall Street Journal poll.. shows Republicans up 2%

In other "polls" the Red Wave is up 6% and still in others' up 4%. The pollsters are giddy to announce the the Blues are all within the "margin of error"
to stop said Wave.

A registered poll this late is a waste of time. Yet, the fact the GOP,is up two, when the bed wetters are usually up in any registered voter poll is a bigger deal not mentioned.

These fake polls are only to play Real Clear Politics for the Democrat/communists’ b%tches they are, These fake numbers are to skew the stupid “average of the polls.” That sounds good except that RCP accepts any survey report that hurts Republicans and or helps rodents even if it is hand written in crayon.

Good grief, it’s a week until the actual elections and they’re prattling about nonexistent “generic congressional” ballots? That sort of thing is fine before the slates are settled but useless at this point when it’s down to actual candidates.
