- Why Democrats Should Be Most Worried About Troy Jackson (And It’s Not the Cons...
If the final election outcome reflected the average of polls sampled in the third and fourth weeks of September (not including any internal polls from campaigns or affiliated political action committees), Democrats would cede none of their own U.S. Senate seats and flip North Carolina, Ohio, Kansas, Texas, Iowa, and Maine—two more than they need to take control of the upper chamber. However, Democrats can’t be cocky, since most poll margins are slim. The slimmest of those cited above is Maine, with Democrat Troy Jackson ahead of incumbent Republican Susan Collins by just half a percentage point. Further unsettling to Democrats is the New York Times/Siena College poll—the most respected of the included surveys—in which Jackson is behind three points. Why is Jackson struggling to win in a state Kamala Harris won while other Democrats are doing better in deep red territory? Yes, part of the reason is Collins’ longstanding, if overhyped, reputation as a rare moderate breed of Republican. But the case recently made by Rebecca Traister in New York, that Jackson’s campaign has been hobbled by bad advice from Beltway consultants fixated on appealing to centrist voters, doesn’t explain why James Talarico—who has said some of his past provocative comments on gender identity “missed the mark”—and Abdul El-Sayed—who after the primary became uninterested in saying the words “Hasan” and “Piker”—have better poll numbers. A more plausible reason for Jackson’s struggles exists. He is the only Democratic Senate candidate running to flip a Republican-held seat who has served in a state legislative majority, including, until last year, six years as president of the state Senate alongside the current Democratic governor. While all Democratic candidates are railing against the status quo and how politicians in power have failed to address the cost of living, Jackson carries the burden of being part of the status quo, owning a voting record, and being tagged—however unfairly and disingenuously—as part of the problem. As I wrote recently about the decline in per capita real disposable income over the past year, “if the general electorate is angry and attributes weakened purchasing power to Republican policies, then Republicans will have a difficult time getting them mad about something else—whether it’s Abdul El-Sayed campaigning with a radical Twitch streamer or James Talarico’s record of defending transgender rights—no matter how much money they spend.” However, in Maine, the Republican attacks on Jackson are not… [TheTopNews] Read More.10 hours ago
