Updated 3/24/2016 to reflect the results of 3/22/2016 in Arizona and Utah and the finalization of previous contests. Net results after 3/22 Trump -5 Cruz +40 as a result (mostly) of the Utah race. Bad news for supporters of Ted Cruz in the 2016 Presidential nominating contest. Cruz may be mathematically eliminated as early as […]

As of this moment, Real Clear Politics has the Democrats with 46 seats in this November’s midterm election and Republicans with 45. But not to worry my Republican leaning friends, those numbers really do not mean all that much. There are 100 US Senators, 2 from each state. Senators serve 6 year terms with roughly […]

I have been around all over both geographically and politically – I was just at an event in the last several days featuring Terry McAuliffe and he wants to both accept the Medicaid expansion and spend the money from the Feds for education!

Today is voting day throughout the Commonwealth. Exciting day for me. I remember primary day well in 1989. I did not have a professional campaign manager nor did I have conservative groups behind me.

Both the Weekly Standard (which I do not fully trust) and the Wall Street Journal (which I trust more) have called for a biometric ID card for ALL US workers to prove they have legal status. Here’s the Weekly Standard’s quoting the WSJ: The Journal writes that “at least five of the eight senators writing […]

A lot of the pundits are looking at the polls and the race in general and comparing it to past presidential races. I created a computer program to tell us what the results would have been if the polling ratios in this year’s polls were applied to historic models of past presidential elections. The results are interesting. […]

There they go again. Another day another skewed poll. But the good news is that after “Normalization” to correct the Democratic leaning of the poll Republican Mitt Romney actually has a 3 point lead, not a 6 point Obama advantage as the poll pretends to show. The complete analysis of this Bloomberg Poll is here. […]

UPDATE: This is a good poll. I just received the cross-tabs from Gravis Marketing and the sample was 39% Democrats, 36% Republicans and 23% Other (Independents.) My only criticism is that there were too many Republicans and Democrats and too few Independents. But since the sample polled 3% more Democrats than Republicans and the relatively […]
