A friend sent me a link to an Axios newsletter. Here are two paragraphs on the feed that caught my eye.
“Top Republicans are increasingly worried about private polling that paints a dire picture of the midterms — and it’s not just the House they’re afraid of losing, it’s also the Senate.”
“NRSC chair Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) delivered a sobering message to his GOP colleagues Tuesday at a closed-door, off-campus briefing on how Democrats’ six-point lead on the generic ballot could translate into individual midterm Senate races.”
If these polls prove prescient, they would tie into Democrat successes in recent special and November elections, even in Republican strongholds. It would also reinforce the idea that the incumbent president is an anchor for the party. By linking their chain to him, they are sinking their efforts.
