Discussion: Poll: GOP Incumbent Trails In Kansas Senate Race After Crazy Shake-Up

Discussion for article #227415

Unfortunately, “well within the margin of error” means that that the GOP incumbent is not trailing in the Senate race… it means that the race is a tie, to the degree that the poll can measure it.

Note that the withdrawn Democratic candidate still netted 10 percent. Eventually most of that will go to Orman. And Roberts hasn’t budged from 36%.

Thank you, I was about to ask whether Taylor’s name was included in the poll. At least he’s down to 10% in a relatively short time, and he’ll probably drop more. The problem is that in a close race, even 1 or 2 percentage points could be enough to tip the race.
