Pennsylvania
Marist's polls conducted in Arizona, Georgia and Pennsylvania show Democrats leading in crucial Senate races, though the margins remain particularly tight in Georgia.
The surveys also showed Democratic candidates are favored to win gubernatorial elections in Arizona and Pennsylvania but Georgia's Republican Governor Brian Kemp is on track for re-election.
The last 2022 Marist poll for Pennsylvania has found Democratic Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman leading Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz in the Senate race among definite voters with 51 percent to Oz's 45 percent and 4 percent undecided.
The graph below shows polling averages from the Pennsylvania Senate race.

(23,613 posts)Are saying its going to be a red wave and the republicans are confident they will take both houses. I called bs on this. The numbers are not there and people are waking up to the fact that the repukes are insane and want to do away with reproductive rights, social security and Medicare.
I realize they are spreading this bs to discourage the Democratic turnout. It makes me want to encourage more democrats to vote!

(11,520 posts)It's in the same vein as saying: Well, the 'little ladies' were all hot and bothered about the abortion issue but that was merely a emotional response. They'll forget about it and not bother to vote because that's what they do.
Really???
Have they taken a gander at the female early voting returns?
Off the charts.
Fired up and ready to go!

(36,019 posts)I don't want to tell you what's on the FRONT page of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette today.
(It's a depressing poll showing Fetterman losing to Oz.) But they must have looked high and low for that one poll, because all the other polls have Fetterman beating Oz by 5 points or more.
I like this one much better.

(34,832 posts)Im not much on polls, but when there are several saying same thing, which most give Fetterman approx 5 pts, it is an indicator

(11,520 posts)In fact, Fetterman's numbers have been pretty consistent throughout after the wild upper spikes this summer. Republicans are holding their noses and indicating they'll vote for Oz but not in the numbers you'd expect bc the man is deeply disliked. Not as bad as Mastriano (who even most Republicans detest) but not good going into the stretch.

(8,570 posts)Pennsylvania is currently looking VERY good for Democrats in terms of the early vote.
If we work on GOTV efforts and we have a reasonable turnout between now and on Election Day and not a complete, drastic, and unforeseen falloff, I think we win in Pennsylvania. Basically, keep doing what we are doing, be sure to vote, get your friends and family to vote and do what you can to GOTV and I think we should be in good shape!

(20 posts)| saw the Marist Poll results earlier in the day. Since then I have been following what appears in "538" as a result.
So far according to "538", the Dems' Senate chances haven't gone even 1-point up. It was 45%-D and 55%-R yesterday. It is exactly the same today.
Fetterman was up by 0.5% over Oz yesterday. Not only has that not gone up for Fetterman but it has actually gone "down" to 0.4%. Yet, according to Marist Fetterman's clear advantage over Oz is the best compared to everything else Marist has reported today.
Therefore, either "538" has totally ignored Marist today or they have all gone home early, today being a Friday after all.
