Nonpartisan Polls Tell a Different Story

Lakshya Jain finds two very different pictures of the election when looking at the generic ballot.

“The first, by nonpartisan public pollsters… It suggests that the November elections are essentially a dead heat, and that if they were held today, the generic ballot would be a virtual tie.”

“The second is by partisan pollsters, and it suggests a more Republican picture; in fact, the average of partisan-affiliated pollsters (Trafalgar, Data For Progress, Navigator Research, Rasmussen Reports, Insider Advantage, and Echelon Insights) over the last week suggests an R+3 year.”
