Another "Generic" Match-Up: Dems Lead for 2010 House Races

| | Comments (1)

It seems like this is the day for everybody to release a poll doing a Republican vs. Democrats generic match-up for the 2010 congressional elections, and [Gallup] is no exception, reporting that Democrats outpoll Republicans by 50 percent to 44 percent with 7 percent undecided. The survey was conducted July 10-12.

An NPR poll conducted July 22-26 had Democrats and Republicans (including leaners) tied at 43 percent each, and a George Washington University Battleground poll conducted July 19-23 had the Democrats ahead 43 percent to 40 percent, a lead that was within the margin of error.

Gallup polled registered voters and the other two surveyed likely voters.

  1. It's way too early to poll "Likely Voters". A polling firm would be wise to wait on that until the summer before a general election at the earliest. Doing it this early doesn't take into account events that haven't happen yet that will determine who will vote and who will not bother.
