Polls Show Susan Collins Is Doing Well Against Troy Jackson, Too

townhall.com

At the end of June, a poll showed that Susan Collins was beating Graham Platner with working-class voters by a wide margin. That's probably part of why Democrats bounced Platner from the race, citing his numerous problems—up to and including allegations of domestic abuse and rape. They didn't actually care about those controversies; the Nazi tattoo Platner had for years should have been disqualifying from the outset. Their one goal was to beat Susan Collins at all costs.

Now another poll shows Collins is still doing well against Platner's replacement, Troy Jackson.

Remember that in 2020, Real Clear Politics (RCP) had Collins' opponent, Sara Gideon, up by 6.5 points in their last poll before the election. Collins won by more than eight, meaning a 14-point swing.

And Collins is now winning moderate voters, too.

The polls show Collins winning moderate, libertarian, and conservative voters, as well as Central and Northern Maine. She's also winning voters without college degrees by 18 points.

We expect no different this time around.

Collins has delivered for Maine for 30 years.

They have failed, period.

It's a big oof for Jackson.

That being said, Republicans cannot rest on their laurels. Susan Collins needs all the votes to put an end to this madness and keep the Senate in Republican hands.
