RealClearPolitics predicts Tudor Dixon to win Michigan governorship over Gretchen Whitmer

JTN: Polling aggregator RealClearPolitics on Friday projected a surprise win for Michigan Republican gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon next month, predicting a loss for Democratic incumbent Gretchen Whitmer in what could be a foreboding sign of things to come for Democrats during the midterms. 

On RCP’s rundown page of the Michigan governor’s race this year, the outfit lists its prediction for that race as a “GOP Pick Up,” noting that its adjusted poll average by Friday had Dixon herself up by nearly three polling points. 

RCP’s metrics indicate that its unadjusted average has Whitmer polling at a three-point advantage; by this time during her 2018 election bid she was polling at a near 10-point advantage. 

Whitmer in polling over the last several months had consistently enjoyed double-digit leads on Dixon, but that advantage began to drop quickly around the beginning of October, particularly as inflation continued to grind down voters and Democrats continued to take major heat for the country’s ongoing economic woes.  more

  1. Shhhhhh, don’t tell the left. They will work extra hard to manufacture Dem ballots!

    Nah, God will have mercy on us as we ask for his help to bring him back into our society.

  2. Well, she doesn’t have an evil face (yet). So, she has that going for her. And not just an evil face, not a 𝖒𝖔𝖙𝖍𝖊𝖗𝖋𝖚𝖈𝖐𝖎𝖓𝖌 evil face!

  3. After Dixon wins, it would not surprise if Whitmer turns to lawfare to investigate every aspect of the election that was clearly interfered with by Dixon and her co-conspirators.

  4. Polling the contest as close enables easier cheating by the communists. If reality were laid bare there is every chance Dixon leads by twenty or more points. Pretending Whitmer is up, even, or very slightly trailing keeps expectations in line and requires many fewer ballots to be faked up to produce the desired apparent result. One might ask a philosophic question, is discarding ballots from an area known to favor the not desired (by the communists) candidate a form of ballot stuffing? In an equation it would be, but are political contests subject to mathematics in the modern day?
