Senate Race Poll

Posted by Danny, on April 11th, 2008, at 12:16 pm

U.S. Senator Jeff SessionsIn the state’s U.S. Senate race, Republican incumbent Jeff Sessions leads Democratic challenger Vivian Figures by 21 percentage points, 57% – 36%, in a poll released this week by Rasmussen Reports. Who knew anybody was polling this?

Could anything make this race competitive? Lanny Young on a witness stand? Doesn’t seem likely.

    40% is the Mondale Line. (Like .200 is the Mendoza Line in baseball.)

    Vivian, at 36%, is not even minimally competent as a candidate.

    The fact that nobody North of Mobile County has ever heard of Senator Figures and she still got 36% is pretty amazing. Once she starts campaigning she will jump to 45%. Just not sure that Session will ever fall to below 53% though.

By Rep. Cam Ward on May 31, 2010

TRYIN’ TO CATCH UP

By Natalie Davis on June 1, 2010

I’ve been in Venice on a little vacation and just returned last night.  I’ve been trying to catch up and see that there have been few dramatic events in the last 10 days.  I thought the www.fivethirtyeight.com piece was especially good, though the comments reflected the anti-Alabama knee-jerk reactions of those who live outside the [...]
