The rise of Donald Trump's approval numbers in battleground states is not a big enough part of recent conversation. I've played Devil's Advocate for the approval rating impact for years. But those who tout it, do not seem to be giving the rise the same attention as the decline.
You know what? Let's do another thread on this. I'm feeling thready today. Re: Donald Trump's rising approval ratings in the states, it's had a bit of a mixed result. He's above water now in Florida, but Rick Scott's lead was bigger when he wasn't. In Arizona...
In Arizona, not just us, but the Fox Poll and OH Predictive Insights had Donald Trump sitting pretty in the 50s. Yet, in this state, it seemed to help McSally more than other GOP candidates in Florida. But not that much. Speaking of OH Predictive Insights...
Speaking of OH Predictive Insights, they've probably tracked Arizona closer than most others. Next poll will be interesting given it will adjust for early voting etc. I digress. Moving on. North Dakota, a state where his rising approval has had a clear direct big impact.
What I mean by that, is that "mind-changers" and undecideds who were picked up by Kevin Cramer is last few weeks also say they changed their views on how Donald Trump is handling his job as President. So, that's a clear one. But in other states, it's not that clear.
