Georgia: As Close as Ever: Despite the serious attacks that Republican Herschel Walker has absorbed over the past ten days, a series of three polls, including one from a Democratic source, finds little change in the Senatorial campaign battle that pits the former football star against Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock.
All three of the polls were conducted over the October 8-11 period, with sample sizes ranging from 717 to 1,084, using multiple sampling techniques. Moore Information actually sees Mr. Walker leading the race, 46-44%. The Trafalgar Group posts a similar 46-45% cut, but with Sen. Warnock on top. Civiqs, polling for the Daily Kos Elections website, gives Mr. Warnock his best showing, but even that is a tepid, 49-46%. Louisiana: Sen. Kennedy Poised for Outright Win: Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy (R) is on the ballot for a second term and a just released Public Policy Polling survey (10/10-11; 633 LA likely general election voters; interactive voice response system & text) projects that his outright win is probable. Sen. Kennedy leads retired Navy officer Luke Mixon (D) and community organizer Gary Chambers (D), 53-16-8%. Even after the PPP surveyors posed negative questions about Sen. Kennedy in an effort to push respondents away from him, the ballot test did not change. On election night, expect Sen. Kennedy to be re-elected in Louisiana’s jungle primary system with a majority vote and thus avoiding a secondary December 10th runoff election. Utah: McMullin Tops Sen. Lee in Poll: The Hill Research Consultants, polling for the Put Utah First Super PAC (10/5-11; 500 UT likely general election voters; live interview & online) has found Independent Evan McMullin posting his first significant lead over Utah Sen. Mike Lee (R). The ballot test reveals a 46-42% McMullin edge over the two-term incumbent. Sen. Lee’s favorability index has gone south, and now reaches a 42:52% favorable to unfavorable ratio. The failure of Utah’s junior Senator, Mitt Romney (R), to endorse Sen. Lee has also attracted a large amount of attention. This is another race to watch as the election cycle continues to wind down.
