MS SEN: DSCC Poll Shows Musgrove Up
A rule of sorts for this blog: don’t cite partisan polls. I’m going to make an exception for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee’s latest survey of Mississippi voters. They give former governor Ronnie Musgrove (D) an eight point lead over Republican incumbent Roger Wicker. Even if the DSCC were inclined to fudge the poll (or their pollster was) — no evidence that they have or will, but I’m just saying — they wouldn’t show their candidate in the lead by that much. Expectations are raised — and if future polls consistently show Musgrove behind Wicker, we’ll know that (a) the DSCC poll was misleading or (b) Wicker has regained a lead. The DSCC poll is consistent with Democratic energy in the state, with Republican pessimism, and with Musgrove’s broad popularity.
