    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 1, 2010 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Early Look at Missouri Senate Shows Close Race Raleigh, N.C. – Claire McCaskill was involved in incredibly close races for Governor in 2004 and Senator in 2006 from Missouri and it looks like she’s in for another one as she seeks reelection to the Senate in 2012. McCaskill leads Sarah Steelman by 1 point in a hypothetical match up and trails Jim Talent and Peter Kinder each by 2 points in them, all results well within the poll’s margin of error. Voters in Missouri are pretty evenly divided in their feelings about McCaskill’s job performance during her first term. 43% approve of the job she’s doing, while 44% disapprove. There’s near complete polarization along party lines in her reviews- 77% of Democrats give her good marks, while 77% of Republicans think she’s doing a poor job. Independents lean slightly in her favor by a 43/40 margin. Voters have mixed reactions to the potential GOP challengers tested in the poll as well. For Steelman and Kinder the main response is ambivalence. 59% of voters don’t know enough about Steelman to have formed an opinion and 54% say the same about Kinder. Those who do have feelings about them are slightly positive. Kinder’s favorability is 23/22 and Steelman’s is 22/19. Perhaps more surprising is how many voters don’t have an opinion about Talent even after he ran statewide 3 times in 4 election cycles at one point in the last decade.

    Deceptive Motives in Political Advertising

    Campaigning for Your Enemies: Deceptive Motives in Political Advertising In 2012, Democratic Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill purchased $1.7 million in television advertisements focusing on one of her Republican rivals, Rep. Todd Akin. Instead of tearing him down, the ad surprisingly made claims that would endear him to Republican voters. One of McCaskill’s purchased television commercials called Akin a “crusader against bigger government” and referenced his “pro- family agenda,” finally concluding that “Akin alone says President Obama is ‘a complete menace to our civilization’” (McCaskill for Missouri 2012, 2012a). McCaskill also ran advertisements meant to question the integrity and conservative credentials of Akin’s Republican rivals. Her advertisements attacked businessman John Brunner for an inconsistent history of voting in elections, and saying he “can’t even say where he would cut the federal budget.” Another ad called former state Treasurer Sarah Steelman “more pay-to-play,” and “just more of the same” (McCaskill for Missouri 2012, 2012b). Steelman’s campaign said the ad “further shows that Sarah Steelman is the candidate that the status quo fears the most,” while the Senate Conservatives fund (which opposed Akin but had not yet chosen one of the other candidates) said “Akin isn’t weak because he’s too conservative. He’s weak because he’s too liberal on spending and earmarks.” The Akin campaign also declined to comment on whether the ad was meant to help them: “While there is much speculation about Claire McCaskill’s strategy, what is clear is that Todd Akin has honestly and directly answered questions and unabashedly articulates a vision for the path ahead.

    Summary: Elections for the United States Senate are to be held on November 6, 2012, with 33 of the 100 seats in the chamber being contested. Winners of these elections will serve six-year terms from January 3, 2013, until January 3, 2019. Currently, Democrats are expected to have 23 seats up for election, including two independent seats that caucus with the Democrats. Republicans are expected to have 10 seats up for election. The Presidential election, elections in the U.S. House of Representatives, and elections for governors in 13 states, as well as many state and local elections, will also be held on this date.

    Senate Election Map Could Be GOP's Saving Grace

    April 5, 2018 Senate Election Map Could Be GOP’s Saving Grace What's Happening: It's 215 days until the 2018 midterm elections and the latest polling has Democrats leading Republicans by 8.0 points in a generic polling tracker. After the December upset victory of Democrat Doug Jones in Alabama, Republicans now hold a razor thin 51-49 edge over Democrats in the Senate. A net of two seats will give Democrats control of the upper chamber in November. But of the 35 Senate seats up for election this year, 26 are held by Democrats (and Independents) and nine are held by Republicans. Why It Matters: As the much-ballyhooed anticipated Democratic wave puts Republicans in grave danger of losing control of the House, Republicans continue to have a stronger hand--albeit not invincible--to retain control of their majority in the Senate. The main reason for the GOP's Senate fortunes is the electoral map. For House Democrats, victory for them runs through states like California, New York, New Jersey, and other areas where President Trump and the Republican brand do not fare well. However in the Senate, Democrats face much tougher geographic terrain as they defend and seek inroads that go through the heart of Trump country. Incumbent Senate Democrats face a historically difficult map in 2018 as they are defending 26 seats -- 10 of which are in states Trump won -- compared to the only nine seats in total that Republicans are defending. Among several of the 10 states Trump won in 2016 that Senate Democrats are defending, the president's margin of victory was significant: +41.7 points in West Virginia, +35.8 points in North Dakota, +20.2 points in Montana, +19.0 points in Indiana, and +18.5 points in Missouri.
