Blackburn will win by more than 5%. Nothing to see here.

How and why is this even close in the first place?

Soros and his buddies are probably pouring in a ton of money like what O'Rourke is getting in Texas.

Early voting started today for Tennessee. Hoping to swing by in a couple hours to cast my MAGA vote for Blackburn

It never was. Libs are just trying to hype up candidates to pretend there is a blue wave coming. It's just like Cruz and Puto in TX

Has to be a weak attempt at a suppression poll as Bredesen should be much lower after that Project Veritas video release. Either that or Democrats simply don't care.

Why are they hiding the cross-tabs?

Bredesen is a well-respected moderate while a lot of people hate Blackburn. There are a lot of people in the Tennessee GOP establishment who simply wont support her at all. She’s also hurt by her defense of opioid manufacturers.

ETA: still think she wins. The state is extremely red in the rural areas

Does TN allow straight-party voting?

Democrats nominated the only democrat that could even keep it close because Bredesen is a very good liar that could make normal folk feel like he's not a batshit crazy liberal or a SJW.

Lol what?

She's supported by everyone who matters.

POTUS Trump.

Majority Leader McConnell.

TN Senator Lamar Alexander.

Governors Dunn, Sundquist, and Haslam.

The GOP nominee for Governor in Bill Lee who's cruising in the polls.

Tennessee GOP party apparatus.

The NRA.

And so on.

The TN GOP ad that just dropped is awesome. So glad we've got photoshopping and memeage on TV nowadays.

Not really. A lot of current/former Hallam staff and higher level TN GOP officials aren’t helping her campaign or even willing to vote for her. They aren’t going to hurt the party by endorsing a non-Republican but almost to a man everyone I know connected to the TN GOP in Nashville thinks she’s a snake.

From a national standpoint she’s plenty supported by the establishment. Not as much here.

Random state party no name officials and low bottom tier big wigs <<<<<<<<<<< State GOP politicians, POTUS, former Governors, Current senator, high profile groups, current nominee for Governor.

If this is all you've got, no wonder she's going to win.

A friend of mine worked for her on the hill. Said she is very sharp and was fun to work for.
