We're Running Late Today, So Check Out The Special Election In NY-23
The Club for Growth is going to make something great happen.
If you haven't been following, the GOP nominated a poor candidate, and the Club has been heavily involved in supporting Conservative candidate Doug Hoffman.
On Tuesday, he will win.
From Stuart Rothenberg
In New York's 23rd district, another three-way race, Republican nominee Dede Scozzafava now seems like an afterthought.
Baseball statistician-turned-political-statistics guru Nate Silver, who seems to question the integrity and veracity of every Republican or conservative poll that he doesn't like, has raised questions about the newest Club for Growth survey, which shows Conservative Party nominee Doug Hoffman holding a slight lead of 32 percent to 28 percent over Democrat Bill Owens.
In fact, more than one poll (public and private) shows that the liberal Republican has slid into third place and that the race is statistically even between Hoffman and Owens. (For the record, Club for Growth pollster Jon Lerner is among the least likely pollsters to fudge numbers or manipulate data.)
