Transcript
Maya Good evening, and welcome to Crosstab Live Tonight. A new poll just landed in Georgia's governor's race, so let's start there, Daniel.
Daniel Right, Maya. InsiderAdvantage has Republican Jackson at 49 percent, Democrat Lance Bottoms at 47. That's a 2 point lead for Jackson.
Maya And where does that put our average now?
Daniel The crosstab average now shows Jackson up by 1.8 points in Georgia.
Maya Three more new polls came in tonight. Let's go to Iowa first - two races there.
Daniel Iowa Senate: YouGov has Democrat Turek at 47, Republican Hinson at 46. A 1 point race. Our average now has Turek up 0.5.
Maya And the Iowa governor's race, Daniel?
Daniel Democrat Sand leads Republican Lahn, 50 to 44, a 6 point gap in that poll. Our average has Sand up 8, down half a point from 8.5.
Maya That's a real move, Daniel - small, but a move. What about Connecticut?
Daniel Big number there. Quinnipiac has Democrat Lamont at 58, Republican Fazio at 38 - a 20 point spread. Our average jumped to Lamont by 16.3, up 2.9 points since the last update.
Maya Daniel, with all these numbers, which one do you think our viewers should watch most tonight?
Daniel I'd say you tell me, Maya - you've got the Nevada governor's race flagged as one we're watching.
Maya That's right. Ford and Lombardo in Nevada - 13 polls in, and neither leads right now. A race we're watching.
Daniel Nationally, Democrats have a 68 percent chance of winning Senate control, Republicans 32. The most likely outcome is 52 Democratic seats.
Maya And the top lines: Trump's approval sits at 37 percent, disapproval at 61.3. The generic ballot has Democrats at 50.9, Republicans at 42.1.
