Manchin leads in West Virginia despite high Trump approval: poll
By Michael Burke - 10/01/18 08:19 PM EDT

Incumbent Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) leads his Republican challenger, state Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, by eight points ahead of next month's midterms, according to a new poll published Monday by Gray Television.

Manchin's lead comes despite high approval ratings of President Trump among voters in the state.

The survey found that 46 percent of likely voters support Manchin, while 38 percent are backing Morrisey. Another 3 percent said they support Rusty Hollen, the libertarian candidate, according to the poll.

Manchin is considered a vulnerable candidate as one of 10 Democrats facing reelection in states that Trump won in 2016.

To be fair .. a similar Nonsense poll reads ...

Quote
A new poll released on Monday by Valley News Live, the NBC-TV affiliate in Fargo, North Dakota, and Strategic Research Associates, shows that Republican Rep. Kevin Cramer (R-ND) has jumped to a ten point lead over incumbent Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND) in the North Dakota Senate race. The poll of 650 likely voters in North Dakota conducted between September 17 and September 27 shows that Cramer now leads Heitkamp 51 percent to 41 percent, with eight percent undecided. It has a margin of error of 3.5 percent.

Folks, polls are for idiots!

It's a dead heat for all intents and purposes, an article also came out saying some West Virginians have been pressuring him to vote for Kavanaugh. So he has this decision to make, it could be pivotal to vote him out of office if he is a "no" vote.

I daresay that if Manchin were to win and then switch parties, he might become a "more reliable Republican" than Collins, Murkowski or Flake the snake ever were...
