RCP Poll-of-Polls
Latest Polls: DEAD HEAT in BOTH RACES
Here are some details (i.e. the “internals”) from the most recent poll…
=============
INSIDER ADVANTAGE Latest Poll
> IA tends to be right-leaning; sample was 48% GOP, 38% Dem, 12% Independent
> GOP leads in both races by less than 1 percentage point … a statistical tie.
=======
Demographic splits are practically identical for both races …
> Perdue & Loeffler (P&L) lead among older voters by 4 percentage points (pp) … Ossoff & Warnock (O&W) lead among younger voters by 7.5 pp.
> P&L lead among White voters 68.5% to 28.5% … O&W lead among Black voters 92% to 8% (Note: GA population is approximately 57.8% White, 31.9 Black)
> Men skew ~55% to 45% towards P&L … women skew ~55% to 45% for O&W … ~3% of women are undecided.
> 85% of GOP voters favor P&L … 95% of Dem voters favor O&W … P&L lead with Independents: Perdue leads with Independents 52.5% to 45.8% … Loeffler leads with Independents 47.5% to 44%
=======
Voters split roughly 50-50 re: whether the general election was “fair & accurate”…
> Fair & accurate: 47.9%; Not fair & accurate: 46.4%; Undecided: 5.7%
> 75% of GOP thought the general election was not fair & accurate … 85% of Dems thought it was fair and accurate … Independents split 50% yes, 45% no, 5% undecided
=======
Bottom line: Yep, it’s all about turnout.
=======
P.S. I wonder what the split is between voters who paid Federal income taxes in 2019 … and those who didn’t.
I bet that would be illuminating…
