Nolte: Bloomberg Internal Poll Shows Bernie Could Flip House to GOP

John Nolte 25 Feb 2020

An internal poll from the Mike Bloomberg campaign shows Bernie Sanders could cost Democrats the House of Representatives.

“Bernie Sanders’ nomination could drag down vulnerable House Democrats trying to hold onto their competitive districts,  according to a new poll conducted for Mike Bloomberg’s campaign that is circulating among members,” reports the far-left Politico.

According to this poll of 40 House districts that could swing either way this November, “Sanders is less popular than Trump and loses significant support when hit for holding socialist positions.”


--- Quote ---    The poll found Sanders essentially running even with Trump in a head-to-head match-up across the districts, trailing the incumbent by just one point. But Trump opens up 6-point advantage after a list of negative messages about Sanders’ ideology and alleged ineffectiveness in the Senate is presented to poll respondents.

    But Sanders’ potential impact extends beyond the presidential race. A plurality of voters, 39 percent, say they will be less likely to vote for a Democrat for Congress if Sanders is the Democratic nominee and his ideas are folded into the party platform. That’s nearly double the 21 percent who say they would be more likely to vote for a Democrat for Congress, while 34 percent say it wouldn’t impact their vote.

    …

    The poll found that 47 percent of voters in competitive, Democratic-held districts felt that “the increased role of socialist ideas in the Democratic Party” was a “bad thing,” and 19 percent “ believe it is a good thing,” and 24 percent said “it makes no difference to them.”

LadyLiberty:
On top of the Bernie problem, down ballot races are experiencing another problem that will affect their ability to win.  It has been reported that Bloomberg has lured away and hired so many experienced Dem staffers that the down ballot candidates are having trouble finding adequate staff.   :silly:
