Fox News Poll: Biden ahead in Arizona, Kelly trouncing McSally in Senate race

Republicans are rightly concerned about Arizona.

A new Fox News Poll finds the state shading blue -- especially in the race for the U.S. Senate, where Democrat Mark Kelly bests incumbent Republican Sen. Martha McSally by a 50-37 percent margin among Arizona registered voters.

The story here is party loyalty. Some 88 percent of Democrats back Kelly, while just 73 percent of Republicans support McSally. Fully 13 percent of those backing President Trump in the presidential race cross over and go for Kelly.

Gov. Doug Ducey appointed McSally after the 2018 retirement of Sen. John McCain’s successor, Jon Kyl.

In a head-to-head presidential ballot test, Democrat Joe Biden edges President Donald Trump by 46-42 percent. Another 11 percent are still up for grabs. Biden’s 4-point advantage is within the poll’s margin of sampling error.

Cunningham in NC is consistently anywhere from 3-4% up on Tillis to down by only about 1-2%, so good shot there.

Montana has had VERY little polling, but what little they have had has shown Bullock (D) ahead of Daines by 5-8%.

I haven't seen Ernst in IA (R) up by more than 1-3% at most lately.

Both seats in GA I've been seeing polls with us either up 1-2% or down 3-5%, so OK shots there too.

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/senate/ is a great resource. I check it almost daily.

but count on the crazies to come out for Chump in 2020. They didn't come out 2018 when Sinema won.

Clinton in '96.

This would be sweet.

We ALL have to do our part this fall. Volunteer as we're able, donate as we're able, talk to our friends, and most importantly, SHOW UP. If Biden supporters take nothing for granted, it will be a landslide.
