| Poll: Claire McCaskill Trails GOP Challengers by 7, 16 Percent |
| 2018-05-24 |
| [BREITBART] Missouri Democrat Sen. Claire McCaskill ... Now, why would I pay taxes on my airplane? Send the bill to the taxpayers!... trails not one but two Republican challengers in head-to-head matchups, according to a poll released Tuesday. The poll by Gravis Marketing ‐ commissioned by Republican candidate Austin Peterson ‐ shows the incumbent trailing state Attorney General Josh Hawley and libertarian-leaning Petersen by more than the margin of error. "In the first match-up, Hawley was picked by 50 percent of respondents and McCaskill was chosen by 43 percent. In the second, 56 percent of respondents chose Petersen, and 40 percent picked McCaskill. The margin of error for the survey was 3.4 percentage points," reports USA Today. In response to the poll, Petersen said, "Both (Hawley and McCaskill) have shown themselves to be ladder-climbing career politicians who prioritize professional gain over honest representation of the electorate. "After nearly a year of hearing Missourians express their frustration with the insider politics in Jefferson City and Washington on the campaign trail, I can’t say I’m surprised by these results." |
