I wonder if these polls figure in the work being done by organizations like SwingLeft. Their target map for 2022 includes 3 OH House races, and not the Senate and Gov races, but if they can increase the turnout for those races it'll boost the Dem prospects for Ryan and Whaley as well.

Yeah, I think Arizona will depend a lot on who they nominate, and how vile and extreme they are (it's just a sliding scale, they're all terrible). Also it's Mark Kelly up for re-election and not Sinema, and he's a freaking astronaut.

I went to Hanover College and spent some time in "SW Ohio," at the University of Cincinnati. Hoo boy that was all I needed.

I always get a kick out of the fact that Russia clearly invaded Ukraine, yet if the situation gets worse, it's our fault for helping to arm the Ukrainians. So I guess attacking your next door neighbor is OK.

Ohio's nearing the 50/50 KLAN tipping point, finally ...

My input towards this cake was limited to advice (and a little bit of fondant modelling so I could show my daughter how to make a fleur de lis), other than that this is all her work.

Everything's a zero-sum game to Rethugs. Fits in nicely with their "Democrats are evil and they're going to take away your guns, your rights, and everything else" routine.

Plus we get the typical Fox "News" headline: WH Invites K-Pop Group To Bolster Street Cred." Just doing their job of bashing Democrats 24/7.

Hell, it's made by non-white people.That's reason enough for them to hate it.

If they said that Fox "News" and the Rethug party would be "outraged," of course. But them calling Democrats communists and pedophiles? Hey, no problem!

Wait.WAIT.How can 41% say they will vote for Vance but only 34% find him favorable?The actual fuck, Republican voters.

It's just good old Monday morning quarterbacking.

"Undecided" or "swing" voters are often misrepresented as though they are completely middle of the road, on the fence, cannot quite decide if they favor a deeply conservative candidate or a deeply liberal one, but in reality it really covers a vast group of people who don't fit in the category of "definitely voting for candidate X or Y". So it can be people who lean conservative or liberal, but not that much, or differ on issues (pro-choice but pro-gun), or who lean a certain way but are not engaged enough to vote normally, and may or may not do so.

When polls lump them all into "undecided" it can be misleading.
