this Democrat collapse is so tasty
www.politico.com
excerpts:
Polling commissioned by GOP groups on four newly redistricted, Democratic-leaning House seats — Colorado’s 8th District, Indiana’s 1st District, Oregon’s 5th District and Texas’ 28th District — found President Joe Biden’s approval ratings underwater in areas he won by an average of 7 points in 2020. The generic ballot in those combined districts, pitting an unnamed Democratic candidate against an unnamed Republican candidate, was tied at 39 percent among registered voters.
Across all four districts, 27 percent said the country was on the right track, while 67 percent said it was on the wrong track.
Significantly, the districts are similar in their longtime blue lean. Three are currently represented by House Democrats, none of whom are on the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s list of most vulnerable members: Rep. Kurt Schrader (D-Ore.), who represents a large chunk of central Oregon; Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) represents a heavily Latino strip of south Texas; and Rep. Frank Mrvan Jr. (D-Ind.) is in the northern Indiana seat, which includes metropolitan Chicago suburbs. Mrvan’s district is one of the longest continuously blue seats in the country, having not elected a Republican to Congress in 90 years.
Even so, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee presented its own private polling on Wednesday to members, showing that they were down just 2 points in generic head-to-heads, a small improvement from the party’s own internal polling in July showing a 6-point deficit to Republicans.
The new GOP survey was paid for by a pair of groups: The Coalition to Protect American Workers, run by Marc Short, a Trump administration alum; and N2 America, led by Liesl Hickey, a Republican strategist who served as executive director of the National Republican Congressional Committee. The survey, conducted by Public Opinion Strategies, interviewed 600 registered voters across four House districts with a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

GOP internal polling finds fertile ground for expanding the House map
Two Republican groups sponsored a survey of four longtime Democratic districts.
