President Trump has tied up the presidential race in the battleground state of Minnesota, a Trafalgar Group survey released Thursday revealed.

Trafalgar Group’s survey, conducted August 15-18 among 1,141 likely general election voters, showed President Trump and Joe Biden in the midst of a dead heat in the North Star State. President Trump garnered 46.5 percent of the vote, compared to Biden’s 46.9 percent.

Less than two percent remain undecided:

Younger voters, who make up the 18-24 demographic, represented 9.7 percent of total respondents, followed by 25-34 (15.9 percent), 35-44 (16 percent), 45-64 (38.1 percent), and 65+ (20.2 percent).

The survey’s margin of error stands at +/- 2.98 percent.

---------------

So while I don't have much use for polls, I do look at them as a whole and over time, to look for changes and shifts, plus little nuggets like this.

MN hasn't voted Republican for a President since '76. That it is even close and in this case tied, is something that gets my attention as a significant indicator of the race.
The Republic is lost.

You know I really want to believe, but according to RCP, this is a GOP push poll, and I give these the same leery eye I would to a dim one.

Just as a reminder....  This is the state that elected Al Franken.

Don't forget...   This is the state that elected Al Franken.

I tend to agree, but if Biden has this big national lead like the polls say, MN should reflect that. Even if Trafalgar is wrong and Biden is say 5 or 6 points ahead, the Dems should be worried because Biden should be ahead 10-15 points or more ahead. Yet he's not.
The Republic is lost.

Fully agree.  IMO's Biden's so called 10+% lead nationally is B.S.  This thing is damned close.  Really watch the panic ensue, if he doesn't get the normal post convention bump.

Actually, they didn't.  The number of illegal and fraudulent votes far exceeded the margin between Franken and his GOP opponent.

You got me there, I stand corrected.  I was going back to the Coleman election.  Franken the Groper never should have been in that seat in the first place.

Dang straight, I don't ever remember that level of larceny of an election on the national level in my life.  Why Coleman went limp wicked in response is still a mystery to me.
