Lon Jonson’s September poll contradicts his October poll

October 14, 2016

Yesterday, Jack Bergman released a poll in MI-01 showing him leading Lon Johnson by 5 points. In response to this poll, Johnson released a new poll, saying “the race has trended our way since August.”

Yeah, not so much.

Admittedly, I am no mathematician. However, I did pass math class in the second grade, and know the following mathematical statement to be true.

2 > 1

So how exactly has this race trended Lon’s way since August?

NRCC Comment: “Lon Johnson is in full-blown panic mode after Jack Bergman’s campaign released a poll showing Johnson losing by 5 points. If Lon Johnson is going to cook up a poll, can he at least not insult the intelligence of every person who passed second grade math class?” –NRCC Spokesman Chris Pack
