McCaskill up 10 pts in non-troll poll

Posted by William A. Jacobson on August 23, 2012 67 Comments

PPP's flash poll the night before Todd Akin's initial deadline to withdraw showed Akin still ahead by a point. I called it a troll poll which would encourage Akin not to withdraw. And so it did, Akin cited the poll in interviews justifying his decision not...

Little would surprise me when it comes to former Providence Mayor and since 2010 congressman David Cicilline. But massive voter fraud?
