SurveyUSA again has the MN US Senate close at Smith+3.
Poll Report (documentcloud.org)
This can't be real. Lewis +1 in 18-34. I literally do not believe that. And again with the Trump-Smith voters. Really, 7% of Trump voters are going to vote for Smith with another 6% who are undecided? Give me a ****ing break.
SurveyUSA doesn't inspire confidence in that A rating.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

In the past I have voted for a House candidate or Senate candidate with whom I did not necessarily agree. I did so because I thought the issue of seniority, and the power that it brings to that particular person, is more important to the state than finding someone closer to my beliefs.
For instance, Collin Peterson in western and northwestern Minnesota. Collin is pretty conservative as Democrats go, but even if he was more liberal, or even if my beliefs were in lockstep with the Republican candidate, I would never in a million elections vote him out. His seniority and position as chairman for the House Ag committee are way more important to the State than just finding someone slightly more aligned with me.
Now, Smith has almost no seniority so that argument doesn't really apply here, but under the right circumstances I could easily see voting for someone for President and voting against their political twin for Senate or House.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

I get the feeling they are forcing results either on purpose or out of laziness. Even leaving aside there is almost no chance Lewis is polling that well with the 18-34 crowd the whole thing makes no sense. Again in other states I can buy the ticket splitting stuff but Minnesota hasnt ticket split in forever on national elections. If the MNGOP had run someone other than Lewis I would have Tina as very vulnerable but they ran a guy who couldnt even win re-election in a district that until Craig won in 2018 had had exactly 1 Dem Rep in my lifetime. Now we are to believe that guy, who Republican voters ran away from 2 years ago is somehow a threat?
With the amount of votes already in and with the population centers that are going to go heavy for Smith over Lewis I just dont buy any of it. Just this month this poll has had Smith +7, Smith +1 and now Smith +3. All that with zero negative happening for smith and really nothing of note positive happening for Lewis outside Trump coming here and propping him up. (he did get a good endorsement out of Duluth but that would not make a dent in the TC) I mean even the serial hedgers at 538 dont seem to buy it."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

That is the ad Lewis ran trying to look like a hardazz. I am pretty sure the pellet gun I had as a kid was more intimidating. It kind of reminded me of Kerry when he tried to look like a hunter because he got called out for being anti-gun."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."
