Polling Report and Electoral Vote Update

We have decided to separate the polling and electoral vote map from the Open Thread and give it its own post. Makes sense, since the Open Thread is supposed to be for you, the reader, to offer and discuss something that we are missing, not for us to give you more information. Today, we have a poll out of North Dakota.

Friday Open Thread [4.27.12]: Electoral College Map Edition

I am not sure what Rove is smoking making us think Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and North Dakota are only leaning Republican while Colorado is in the bag for Obama. It is most likely a Rovian mind trick, trying to get us to spend money there. So I started looking at all the state polls on the Huffington Post map, and determined that I too would maintain our own DL map in the open threads day to day, based on only the latest polls in that state, except for Rasmussen polls for obvious reasons.

DL Tracking Poll Results — Tom Gordon (D)

Filed in Delaware by on April 27, 2012 24 Comments

Disgraced Former New Castle County Executive Tom Gordon is thinking about taking another run at his old office. It makes sense.

He also probably figures some longing for when times were good in the county during his terms as Exec will redeem him in the eyes of the voters. And our poll results will give him some encouragement that such a redemption is very possible.

Dana Milbank: “Aficionados of the Etch a Sketch will recall a certain flaw in the toy: If you use it often, some of the lines drawn no longer disappear when you shake the device, instead leaving an indelible trace of where you have been.”
