Rasmussen confirms GOP surge (Partisan trends)
By AndrewRe Comments (1) / Email this page » / Leave a comment »
Rasmussen Reports has an update that's still behind the paywall that shows that 'Republicans may have recovered some lost ground during the final week of the campaign.'
They find that 35.9% of Americans now regard themselves as Dems, compared to 33.0% for the GOP. That's down from a 6.2% advantage earlier in the month.
LET'S CALL IT THE RESURGENT REPUBLICANS!!
Also, the poll shows Talent leads McCaskill 49%-48% in Missouri in their just released poll and Crist leads Davis 50%-42% in Florida.
For a good example, compare his NJ polling with his TN polling. He moved NJ from toss-up to leans Dem based on the most recent poll having Mendenez up 5, even though Kean has led in 3 of the 5 most recent surveys by him, but Corker vs Ford he moved from leans Rep to toss-up, even though Corker is leading in the last 3 polls (+1, +8, +4).
I'm thinking he just wants to straddle the fence, since he now has the Senate predicted as being 48-48 with 4 toss-ups.
