Gee, maybe because McConnell’s approval in Kentucky (as opposed to nationally) was closer to 44% and McGrath’s was 10% lower? Thread w/ sources. 1/

Here is my sourced thread on this very issue. @RawStory misled a lot of people. 2/ threadreaderapp.com/thread/1340092…
Let’s try to be better than Republicans and NOT spread misleading information. 3/ poll.qu.edu/kentucky/relea…
4/ We all make mistakes I hope @TheRickyDavila retracts his post.
5/ As explained in my thread, McConnell was predicted to win by a wide margin (though he won by an even wider margin). That said, I’d still love for his race to be manually audited. All races should be, but the GOP killed the #SAFEAct which wld have required that 4 federal races.
7/ Nate Silver gave McConnell a 96% chance of winning. Yes, polls are often wrong. But if we are going to use them to make a point, it is important to properly report what they said. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-election-… 
8/ I am no apologist for vendors. I just think it’s important to be as accurate as we can be. I wrote this recently about ES&S, a vendor that I and others have warned about for years. link.medium.com/k5eB35osWcb
