1. Talk about ticket splitting. Wow.

Harris needs to campaign with her and tell that state she needs a Dem Senate to get things done.

2. Hmmm... I was hoping Alsobrooks was leading.

Not helpful.

We can NOT afford to lose this seat.

Lose this one and the Senate is gone.

3. I don't buy it

I just don't. Last poll I saw Hogan was way down. And that was maybe last month.

5. You are correct. I don't know what this is.

4. I enjoyed her speech at the convention.

Hope she gets a bump from that!

6. I Don't Buy That the MD Race is Tied.

There are a couple of other polls with Alsobrooks leading from 8 - 11 points. Fabrizio is a poorly rated pollster with a 1.7 grade on 538.

7. It Appears This is a AARP Poll. Sample Included More Voters Ages 50 and Older.

AARP commissioned the bipartisan polling team of Fabrizio Ward (R) & Impact Research (D) to conduct a survey of voters in Maryland. The firms interviewed 1,258 likely voters, which includes a statewide representative sample of 600 likely voters, an oversample of 482 likely voters ages 50 and older, and an additional oversample of 176 Black likely voters ages 50 and older. The survey was done between August 14-20, 2024. The interviews were conducted via live interviewer on landline (25%) and cellphone (35%), as well as SMS-to-web (40%). The sample was randomly drawn from the Maryland voter list. The margin of sampling error at the 95% confidence level for the 600 statewide sample is ±4.0%; for the 800 total sample of voters 50+ is ±3.5%; for the 400 total sample of Black voters 50+ is ±4.9%.
