Bloomberg Talks

[00:05:38] S0: I mean, I'm looking at a. [00:05:39] S2: House that could be 240 to 250 after tomorrow. And I'm looking at a Senate that could be 53, 54 easily. The thing I would think about in the Iowa, which, I mean, in the Senate is Iowa in the Midwest, because we polled it twice. First time Republicans were winning both. Second time Democrats were winning both. Is that the conventional wisdom is that Republicans are going to take Iowa, hence it is enough distance from Trump, and so therefore should be able to maintain it. I'm going to stick with our poll showing Turek a winner. And if Turek wins, that's going to be an automatic for Ohio and Michigan, and it opens up Kansas and Nebraska. If Turek loses, then you could have a closer and later night on election night. [00:06:28] S0: Incredible. [00:06:29] S1: And I think you're onto something, David, when it comes to the race in Michigan. People were watching football. They were stealing their kids' candy from Halloween. I find it hard to believe that that move, while it did give some Democrats permission to vote for Mike Rogers, that this probably wouldn't move a poll dramatically if. [00:06:46] S0: You took it today, right? We've got about 30 seconds.

[00:06:46] S0: You took it today, right? We've got about 30 seconds. [00:06:49] S2: Yeah, I mean, not everybody's going to copy and paste what happened. I mean, look, 2 million people have already voted. There's another 2.5 million people out there. But most of those people out there remaining are Republicans who don't vote early. So you've got some Democrats and independents who have not yet voted. But the undecided is very low. And the current polling shows, you know, El-Sayed winning by 250,000 votes. There aren't enough votes left. And keep one other thing in mind. There are six candidates on that Michigan ballot for Senate, not two. So people might not vote for Rogers. They may not vote for El-Sayed, but they could vote. for a Green Party candidate or a Natural Law Party candidate as a matter of expression in that election. [00:07:38] S0: Just to make it even more interesting. [00:07:40] S1: David Paleologos, Selection Eve. It's great to see you, David. And thank you for sharing some insights with us. The force behind the Suffolk University Political Research Center. [00:07:49] S0: I should have asked him if he likes foie gras.
