Cori Bush trailing Democratic primary challenger by 22 points: Poll

[brooklynite]

Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) is trailing her Democratic primary challenger by 22 points in a new poll released Monday.

The poll — commissioned by GOP firm Remington Research Group on behalf of the Missouri Scout — was conducted on Feb. 7-9 and included 401 likely 2024 Democratic primary voters.

The survey asked respondents for whom they would vote in a hypothetical primary held today, if the race were between three candidates, listed in the following order: Wesley Bell, state Sen. Maria Chapelle-Nadal and Bush. The question did not indicate which candidate was the incumbent.

Half of the respondents said Bell, 28 percent said Bush, and 4 percent said Nadal. Eighteen percent said they were not sure.

[MichMan]

5. Given the advantage of incumbency, that does not bode well for Cory Bush

6. Can't imagine why

you'd post a 2/12/24 article with a present-tense subject line.

Then again, tenses are hard.

7. Why are you posting a 2 month old story and failing to mention that fact? (BY SARAH FORTINSKY - 02/12/24)

Without that information up front, this faces up as a current (and far more likely to get clicks) article posting.

I personally will lose little sleep if Bush goes down, btw, so I have no ulterior motives for this reply.

8. Time warp. Old news is new again. hahahahahahahaha

[Voltaire2]

9. What poll?

The poll — commissioned by GOP firm Remington Research Group on behalf of the Missouri Scout

This is not only old news, it is bullshit old news.

[Celerity]

10. Remington Research was one of the multiple RW bullshit pollsters that lead far too many to assume a Red wave was coming

in 2022.

[QuickPop]

12. The brutal AIPAC attack seems to be working

I hope she's able to upset their nefarious goals.

14. Welcome to DU!!

[Cha]

13. Do you have a Poll More Current? Like in the last month?

[former9thward]

15. If one existed her supporters would be posting it.

Polls in congressional races are few and far between.
