Is there a head to head poll for Manchin vs Blankenship in WV? - Dennis S - 05-07-2018 ? Re: Is there a head to head poll for Manchin vs Blankenship in WV? - pdq - 05-08-2018 Yeah. Here's two (internal) polls: The results of an internal campaign poll conducted for one rival Senate campaign on Saturday and Sunday were: Blankenship 31 percent, Jenkins 28 percent, Morrissey 27 percent. Obviously, these kind of polls come with a big grain of salt. But it looks like the ex-con racist may be resonating with his deplorable base despite what Donnie said today. (In fact, it may be why they got the latter involved). He may pull it off. Re: Is there a head to head poll for Manchin vs Blankenship in WV? - Dennis S - 05-08-2018 I mean Blankenship-R vs Manchin-D. Re: Is there a head to head poll for Manchin vs Blankenship in WV? - pdq - 05-08-2018 I don’t have one of those, but the general feeling is that after savaging his primary opponents in the GOP, if Blankenship wins, Manchin is a shoo-in. Of course, we thought that about another race in 2016.

He called Elaine Chao and her relatives Mitch McConnell's "China family," amongst other claims. This guy is a convicted killer (convicted of avoiding/subverting safety regulations that led, among other things, to the deaths of 93% of the miners at Upper Big Branch, where 29 workers died in an underground explosion in 2010). He might win, and there aren't enough Black women in West Virginia to save us this time.

Yeah, I know. That's why he's unlikely to win the general, even in West Virginia. |
