NEW: @ProjectLincoln - known in Washington for its attacks on @realDonaldTrump - has turned its attention to Republican senators and is now taking aim at @Team_Mitch with a new minute-long spot airing in Kentucky. morningconsult.com/2020/05/28/lin…
Unlike its other spots, the @ProjectLincoln #KYSen ad doesn't try to tie McConnell to the president. It dubs him "rich Mitch," and contrasts his personal financial standing with the commonwealth's.

The ad:

We tested name ID of the Lincoln Project in our last national poll with Politico, and it appears the choir is being preached to: Three in 10 Democrats had seen/read/heard "some" or "a lot" about the Never Trump group, compared with 19% of Republicans. morningconsult.com/2020/05/28/lin… Image
.@ProjectLincoln is not a big money group: $2.6m it'd raised by April is small in context of a +$6B ntl campaign.

@reedgalen told me the "paid piece" is only part of their efforts: "We have utilized the resources we have to punch far above our weight." morningconsult.com/2020/05/28/lin… Image

Eric Greitens' ex-wife accuses the former Navy SEAL of abuse against her and "physical violence toward our children, such as cuffing our then-3-year-old son across the face at the dinner table in front of me and yanking him around by his hair." #MOSen apnews.com/article/2022-m…
Sheena Greitens said he “threatened to come to the airport and have me arrested for kidnapping and child abuse, saying that because of his authority as a former governor who had supported law enforcement, the police would support him and not believe me.” apnews.com/article/2022-m…
Per WaPo, "She also said that one of her children came home from a visit with Eric Greitens … 'with a swollen face, bleeding gums, and a loose tooth…He said Dad had hit him; however, Eric said they were roughhousing and it had been an accident.'" washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/… #MOSen

Donald Trump just put out a very long statement through his "Save America PAC" attacking @LeaderMcConnell.

The lede: "The Republican Party can never again be respected or strong with political 'leaders' like Sen. Mitch McConnell at its helm."
Trump said if GOP Senators are going to stay with McConnell, "they will not win again."

Our data shows the mere acceptance of Biden’s victory and criticism of Trump within the Senate GOP preceded a weakening of in-state GOP voter support for many senators morningconsult.com/2021/02/16/gop…
"Mitch is a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack, and if Republican Senators are going to stay with him, they will not win again."

Unsmiling: Not true!

NEW: GOP voters have taken a dimmer view of most of their senators in recent months amid all that's happened since Nov. 3.

It underscores DJT's hold on the base as the Senate GOP looks to 1) avoid contentious primary elections and 2) win in '22. Deep dive morningconsult.com/2021/02/16/gop…
In South Dakota, Senate Republican Whip John Thune saw his approval rating with GOP voters fall 16 points since Election Day, and only 22% of his party's voters back him "strongly" morningconsult.com/2021/02/16/gop… #SDSen
In Missouri, Josh Hawley's brand is on much stronger footing than Roy Blunt's with Republican voters as strategists believe the senior senator to be particularly vulnerable to a primary challenger. morningconsult.com/2021/02/16/gop… #MOSen

Big day at @MorningConsult, where we did something we'd never done before: We polled voters on the breaking news about @realDonaldTrump's health in real time, and told you what we found as we consumed it.

Here's what we found: morningconsult.com/form/reaction-…
The salience of news of @realDonaldTrump's diagnosis was HUGE. Broke through to 6 in 10 voters by the time we stopped the poll early-afternoon. morningconsult.com/form/reaction-… Image
As @jpiacenza reported, Republicans and Democrats’ top emotions vary dramatically.

Republicans report being “sad” and “worried," Democrats are “indifferent” and “happy”.

NEW: Democrats are leading in #AZSen, #COSen, #MISen and #NCSen, according to our new polling of likely voters, while #GASen is close to tied, ~100 days out, tracking close to Joe Biden.

Much more on our fresh state data: morningconsult.com/2020/07/28/sen… Image
Our state-by-state tracking of likely voters finds a weakness for GOP contenders in #NCSen, #MISen and #AZSen: They're trailing @realDonaldTrump among likely Republican voters. (This problem isn't showing up for Gardner in #COSen and Perdue in #GASen) morningconsult.com/2020/07/28/sen… Image
Democratic Senate contenders in #AZSen, #COSen, #GASen, #MISen and #NCSen are pretty much matching @JoeBiden's performance among likely voters in their states, and most have an advantage with independent likely voters. morningconsult.com/2020/07/28/sen… Image
