I think people are voting for Grant because she is the woman in the race. She has no campaign to speak of, that I know of.

[sluggo]

Grant was interviewed by the local news station. Her campaign is a joke.

[Anti-Neocon]

We've gotta hold Tillis under 40% to force a runoff, right?

I trust this poll way more than PPP, who probably would want Brannon to win.

[IndianaPolitico]

I take it this is the first poll that have conducted for this race?

[Brian4Liberty]

It takes a lot of effort to overcome the establishment inertia. Most low information GOP voters don't care which GOP candidate they vote for, they just vote for the one that gets a positive mention on Fox News, and they don't vote for a candidate that gets a negative mention. Karl Rove was on Fox the other day, and he mentioned Tillis as "one of the best" GOP candidates in a Senate race. There are still a whole lot of fools who listen to that con-man.

Is this poll more credible than PPP?

Tillis leads among voters over 50 with 40%.

These people still get their information from the tv and respond to campaign commercials.

Is this poll more credible than PPP?

Who knows. Im on Mark Harris' email list and his last email said his polling had him beating Brannon and right behind Tillis, while beating Hagan, etc. Polls are worthless this far out and one can simply pay the pollster to report a desired outcome. 5% seems like a large margin of error too. With that margin the real numbers could be Tillis 23%/Brannon 20%.

I haven't seen a single Tillis ad on tv. Ive seen a few attack ads against him by PACs though.

Is this poll more credible than PPP?

Ehh, I think equally credible but in the opposite direction. PPP is in the tank for Dem status quo, SurveyUSA is in the tank for Rep status quo.

ROFL yeah, that was an internal push-poll. Harris's own supporters are calling him out on that one...

[Brian4Liberty]

I haven't seen a single Tillis ad on tv.

I haven't seen ads, but I've seen him mentioned by Rove and others on TV and radio.

[TaftFan]

Did Brannon ever get enough money to put those ads out?

If possible, it would be good to redo them and cut a cut of Rand and Mike Lee endorsing him.
