...party polling shows that Dems are leading or in a dead heat in all six of the races to recall Wisconsin state senators...Just an FYI: The Dems are all Teamster-endorsed candidates.
More from Sargent:
Tate shared some new numbers about the level of grassroots energy in the state that are eye-opening in their own right, and suggest that labor and Dems have already accomplished something historic.
Tate insisted that party polling shows that Dems are leading in the races to recall GOP senators Randy Hopper, Luther Olsen, and Dan Kapanke, and that they are in dead heats in the remaining races.So color us cautiously optimistic. There's still a week to go, the other side has millions to spend and who knows how they'll try to steal the election. Still, wouldn't it be nice to take all six Senate seats?
“I don’t know that I would say that we are going to sweep all six races, but our polling tells that we have leads in three of these races an we are dead tied in three,” Tate said. “Independents are moving towards the Democratic candidates in strong numbers.” Every race, he said, is “emminently winnable.” Privately Dems are far less confident of overall victory, but it’s noteworthy that Tate was willing to go this far.
