Okay so technically Hoagie is the first to tag Jerry. But Jerry let Hoagie tag him

Let us not forget that about a minute later Chilly manages to catch up to Jerry and actually tag him.

via Politics – FiveThirtyEight

The Democrats made substantial gains at the gubernatorial level, as we expected. They won control of the governor’s offices from Republicans in Illinois, Kansas, Maine, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico and Wisconsin. Connecticut is still too close to call, but Republican Bob Stefanowski is narrowly trailing Democrat Ned Lamont, and a Stefanowski comeback there is the GOP’s only remaining shot at picking up a state from a Democrat. The majority of Americans are likely to have a Democratic governor when the results are finalized.

That said, the Democrats did not have the banner gubernatorial night that our forecast suggested was possible. Let me run through the details.

Obama-Trump states: There are six states Obama won in 2012 that flipped to Trump in 2016 — Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Our model suggested Democrats had a great chance to win all six, which would have been a huge coup for the party. Instead, Republicans won in Florida, Iowa and Ohio, while Democrats won Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Republicans entered this election with control of both the state legislature and the governor’s office in all of these states but Pennsylvania. They will remain totally in charge in Florida, Iowa and Ohio. That gives them virtually unfettered power not only on policy but also in drawing district lines for state and federal legislative races. But it’s big for Democrats to have won in Michigan and Wisconsin and broken up so-called trifectas in those states.

The Midwest: The win in Illinois gives the Democrats total control of that state. The wins in Kansas and Wisconsin will be morale-boosting for Democrats, as they defeated Gov. Kris Kobach, a Trump ally, in Kansas, and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who’s known for his anti-union initiatives. That said, Republicans held on not only in Iowa and Ohio, but also in South Dakota, where Democrats looked like they had an opportunity for an upset.

Black candidates: Only two African-Americans have ever been elected governor in U.S. history. Democrats had three black candidates running this year alone. Maryland’s Ben Jealous lost badly, as expected, to Larry Hogan, a popular and moderate Republican. But Florida’s Andrew Gillum, who led in most polls of his race and had emerged as a favorite of party activists, was defeated by Republican Ron DeSantis in one of the more surprising results of the night. No winner has been declared yet in Georgia, but Stacey Abrams trails Republican Brian Kemp and seems unlikely to make up the margin in that race. She is refusing to concede for now, likely hoping the final count puts Kemp below the 50 percent mark required needed for victory there and pushes the two into a runoff.

Trump-aligned Republicans: DeSantis, Kemp and Kobach got the president’s endorsement to help boost them over more establishment Republicans during this year’s primaries and then aligned closely with Trump during their general elections. The jury is still out on this approach, but Kemp looks likely to win, making these candidates 2-1.

The Northeast: Before last night, this region was equally split, with Democrats controlling five states (Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island) and Republicans five (Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont). Democratic governors won re-election in New York and Rhode Island (Delaware and New Jersey did not have gubernatorial elections this year), but so did Republicans in Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont. Maine moved into Democratic hands, so if the party can also hang on to Connecticut, the balance of power in the region will shift to six-four in favor of the Democrats. It helped Maine Democrat Janet Mills that she was running in an open-seat race, since outgoing Republican Gov. Paul LePage couldn’t run again because of term limits. In Connecticut, Stefanowski was buoyed by the unpopularity of outgoing Democratic Gov. Dan Malloy, though it’s not clear yet whether that will prove to be enough to carry him past Lamont.

Upsets: Kansas is a traditionally red state, but Kobach’s loss was not particularly surprising. He had his own controversial reputation, plus the baggage from the unpopular outgoing administration of Sam Brownback, a Republican who was the state’s governor from 2011 until he resigned earlier this year to take a post in the Trump administration. Others I thought might be vulnerable, like Oregon Democrat Kate Brown (leading by about 6 points) and New Hampshire Republican Chris Sununu (also leading by 6) won relatively comfortably.

We should note a few historic victories. Colorado Democrat Jared Polis become the first openly gay man to be elected governor in the U.S. New Mexico’s Michelle Lujan Grisham, a Democrat, will become the second-ever Hispanic female governor and the first from her party. Republican Kristi Noem will be South Dakota’s first female governor. Kay Ivey of Alabama became the first GOP woman to be elected governor in her state, and Kim Reynolds of Iowa, also a Republican, last night became the first woman of any party to be elected governor there. (Both were already serving as governor after their predecessors resigned.)

A review on the movie “TAG”

Yo what’s up people, my name is James Shonubi, I am a student just like most of y’all and today I will be doing a review of the movie “TAG”. This is my first time reviewing a movie, so pity me if I make mistakes along the line. TAG is an American comedy movie about five friends from Spokane Washington in 1983, who come together in May of every year to play the game of “tag”. Tag is a playground game involving two or more players chasing other players in an attempt to touch them with their hands or “tag’ them. The movie was based on a true life story of about 10 friends who started playing tag in the 1980s and continued for over 20 years, but the director changed it up by adding more contents and cast .The movie is not a major blockbuster like The Avengers or Deadpool 2, but I found it very funny (I am a sucker for comedic movies). I will give a brief introduction of the beginning of the movie and later I will tell you guys the scenes that made me laugh. NOTE, this review contains a few spoilers for those who have not seen it.

The movie starts off with Hogan "Hoagie" Malloy (Ed Helms) explaining how playing the game with his friends had on his life while applying for a job as a janitor in Bob Callahan’s (Jon Hamm) company although it was a disguise to tag him. The two embark on a journey with Hoagie’s wife Anna Malloy (Isla Fisher) and a reporter from the Wall Street Journal Rebecca Crosby (Annabelle Wallis) to recruit two other friends Randy ‘Chili’ Cilliano (Jake Johnson), Kelvin Sable (Hannibal Buress) to take down their friend Jerry Pierce (Jeremy Renner) who was never tagged since they started the game over 30 years ago and was going getting married on May. The movie is for people of all ages who want to sit back and have a good laugh, although I will not recommend it for people below the ages of 16, as it contains profane languages, violent scenes, and sexual references.

In this scene, the gang tricked Jerry into coming to the venue of the rehearsal dinner the night before so that they could tag him. Once, he entered the place it was like he could sense them. He was able to predict all their moves and at the same time whoop their a*****. It was like he was a super warrior; he threw Callahan away with a table cloth making him slap Hoagie who wanted to tag him. Gentle Kevin went to block the door to stop Jerry from escaping, Jerry slid and pulled his pants down and later punched Hoagie on his a**. He escaped and later introduced his fiancé to the gang, who made them sign an agreement to not play the game at specific functions leading up to the wedding and also at the wedding. This forced agreement lead the gang (including the two women) to search for loopholes in the deal and come up with desperate ways to tag Jerry.

This is my best scene. The gang attended the rehearsal dinner, looking for the perfect opportunity to tag Jerry. Jerry being a step ahead of them, decided to break the gang by introducing a childhood friend; who had something with both Chilli and Bob. After the dinner, Jerry escaped into the forest with Hoagie, Kelvin and Chilli chasing him. He lured them into the forest where he had placed booby-traps in the forest. For those who know about survival instincts in the forest, when the person uses a trap nets, swinging logs and a proper camouflage; this was how Jerry set up the forest. The 3 of guys (Hoagie, Kelvin and Chilli) learnt a lesson on survival in the forest.

In this scene, the gang found out about a meeting Jerry was going, they decided to crash it and try to finally tag him. As usual, Jerry was too smart for them and was able to detect them in the crowd. He started with splashing coffee on Chilli, to slapping Hoagie with donuts and later used the fire extinguisher on Bob. Unknowing to him, they had blocked all the exits and also put traps outside the windows; he had to hid in a store room till his wife came to rescue him. His innocent, concerned looking wife was also in on the plans with Jerry and threatened the wedding; this made Hoagie desperate to find a way to tag him.

The movie ended with the gang receiving bad news about one of them and hence led to something remarkable happening. The news reminded the guys the reason for playing the game all these while and why it needs to continue. Hoagie reminded them of gang’s saying “You don’t stop playing because you grow old, you grow up because you stop playing”.

I personally enjoyed this movie, it reminded me of the meaning of true friendship. No matter how busy or far you are, you should always make out time once a while to check up on your friends and celebrate with each other. Even though, the gang used extreme means to show their love; you could sense how they meant to each other. So, I encourage all teens and those in their early 20s to find a way to watch this movie, and maybe you and your buddies can find another way to make sure you stay in each other’s lives. I hope I did not spoil it too much and I will love a feedback on my post, to improve on my future reviews. For those going to watch it, ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!.

“Peeper In Windows Caught At It Again,” Toronto Star. April 25, 1932. Page 2. ----- Young Fellow Is Given Another Chance After Second Offence ---- William Yates, a window peeper, pleaded guilty in the ealry court to-day and the magistrate recollected he had been similarly charged before.

Inspector Guthrie doubted if Yates ‘was all right.;

Yates said he was nineteen years of age and had been in jail since Saturday night.

‘I think there is something wrong with your head,’ remarked the bench. ‘I will remand you for sentence this time, but next time it will be serious for you.’

Vagrants convicted included Henry Culliton, begging, 30 days; William Jordan, $10 and costs or 30 days; Julius Preteas and Jack Hubbard, fighting on Queen St., remanded for sentence. Preteas said he initiated the combat and Hubbard struck him on the chin and he remembered no more.

Frank Sullivan and Leonard Brooks, begging, each went to jail for 30 days.

A decidedly rough-looking aggregation culled from freight cars in the Don valley and arrivals from Sudbury, Elmer Drinkle, William Bellis, Victori Shuzer, Mike Fisk, Leonard Saakes, Alex. Bodylis, Henry Lemeaux, Oscar Hebbertm and Harry Bossen, were fined $10 and costs or periods varying from five to 60 days an alternatives.

Ned Clark Is Warned Ned Clark, who has spent the week-end in jail, following an appearance for drunkenness on Saturday, faced Magistrate Tinker again.

‘I hear, Clark, that you need treatment, at the hospital so I am going to remand you for sentence,’ remarked the bench.

‘I would be much gratified, sir. if you would do so,’ replied Ned politely. ‘I contracted rheumatism many years ago during my service in the northwest.’

‘And look here, Clark, don’t you go out and start any more fighting around the labor bureau, now remember that they have been complaining about you.’

Everett Barker stood up in the dock to-day and pleaded guilty to being drunk.

His mother, holding fast to the sublime faith, entered the witness box to tell the bench her boy was more sinned against than sinning and to ask for leniency. Barker was fined $10 or 10 days.

Wife Doesn’t Want Him On condition that he remain sober, and keep away from his wife in the interim John Dobrowal was remanded on his own bail till May 9 on a drunk charge.

Convicted of begging Henry Culliton was sent to jail for 30 days.

Drunks fined including Thomas Clark, $50 or a month; James D. Bain, $20 or 30 days; Samuel Ibbotson, $10 and costs or 30 days and William Malloy $10 or 10 days.

Arrested on Suspicion Donald Allan and Harvant Timson, mere youths, charged as vagrants, found wandering around at 2.30 a.m. with a screwdriver, pliers, and skeleton key in their possession, were remanded for sentence on probation for a year.

‘I think the police may have saved you from something serious,’ warned the bench.

Bennue Greenberg, a forlorn looking lad, pleaded guilty to theft and was remanded until Wednesday for sentence. Detective Mumberson said the accused took the lock off a slot machine, stole $14 and spent the money.

Brothers Stole $92.80  Harold and James Wilson, brothers, pleaded guilty to shopbreaking. The lads entered a printing company’s premises on Richmond St. E. and stole $92.80. Harold was employed there. The pair were remanded in custody for a week for sentence and a portion of the money recovered was ordered handed back to the printing company.

The crown recollected that one of the lads had been charged with empty an automatic pistol at a police officer in Cobourg a year ago.

‘It was not me,’ denied Harold Wilson. ‘Well it was one of your gang.’

On Relief, Got Drunk John Costigan, on city relief, was fined $10 or ten days when charged with stealing a pair of shoes from a department store.

‘Your worship, I was drunk,’ he said. ‘I don’t know whether I did it or not.’

Charged with theft, Nick Mischuck was remanded till May 2, bail $1,050.

Maurice Kelly, alias Hogan, was granted a remand on bail of $1,000, till April 29, on a charge of forgery of a United States money order.

Harry Trout purchased an overcoat and hat from a Yonge St. store for $45 and gave a worthless cheque. The overcoat was ordered returned and he was remanded on bail for a week for sentence.

Thomas Williams took some wine to a house other than his own and consumed it there. He was fined $10 and costs or 30 days and his permit was cancelled.

This DVD gives you a perspective that most Newsies captures’ cannot. Zachary Sayle and Morgan Keene are huge standouts and gave fantastic performances. The action is followed nicely given the proximity to the stage, but some pieces of action have the focus delayed or are missed, as you can probably assume, dance numbers are hard to follow this close to the stage. Chaz gave a very funny BCEFA speech that is included (audio only). This capture is more wobbly than the (3/17) performance given where it was filmed in the theatre, near perfect audio that is synced with my Zoom H2.

This hands down is the best capture of the original cast. This was done early in Alice's run, before she had strained her voice. Wonderful to revisit this show in all its glory! A+ Next to Normal - Broadway - March 18, 2010 (juniper47's master) FORMAT:  MP4 (HD) CAST: Jessica Phillips (s/b Diana), J Robert Spencer (Dan), Kyle Dean Massey (Gabe), Jennifer Damiano (Natalie), Adam Chanler-Berat (Henry), Louis Hobson (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: Master: juniper47 (released under the name greekymuse on Yahoo) Next to Normal - Dortmund - 2016 (Pro-Shot's master) FORMAT:  MP4 (HD) CAST: Maya Hakvoort (Diana), Rob Fowler (Dan), Johannes Huth (Gabe), Eve Rades (Natalie), Dustin Smailes (Henry), Jörg Neubauer (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) Next to Normal - First National Tour - April 29, 2011 (SunsetBlvd79's master) FORMAT:  VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Pearl Sun (u/s Diana), Asa Somers (Dan), Curt Hansen (Gabe), Emma Hunton (Natalie), Preston Sadleir (Henry), Jeremy Kushnier (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: Beautiful capture with no obstructions. Sensational performance from Pearl as Diana. She is in my tops for actresses playing the role. Great tenderness and vulnerability with a strong big voice! Don't miss this one! A Next to Normal - Fürth, Germany - November 2, 2013 (musicalwasmyfirstlove's master) FORMAT:  VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Pia Douwes (Diana), Thomas Borchert (Dan), Dirk Johnston (Gabe), Sabrina Weckerlin (Natalie), Dominik Hees (Henry), Ramin Dustdar (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: Missing the first 10 minutes of Act 2 ("Wish I Were Here" / "Wär ich nur da") A great quality recording of the German version of "Next to Normal" retitled "Fast Normal" (Almost Normal). The cast is wondeful and got a standing ovation that lasted a couple of minutes. Next to Normal - Off-Broadway / Second Stage - February 11, 2008 (broadwayspunk's master) FORMAT:  VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Alice Ripley (Diana), Brian d'Arcy James (Dan), Aaron Tveit (Gabe), Jennifer Damiano (Natalie), Adam Chanler-Berat (Henry), Asa Somers (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: This is not a great DVD by any means; I was sitting there, producers were behind me, as well as Matthew Scott and Jacqui Polk in front of me, ushers on either sight lines behind me. I held the camera to my chest for the entire show and caught whatever I could. It is blind shot, so there is absolutely no zooms. First video of the original Off-Broadway run. Next to Normal - Off-Broadway / Second Stage - March 13, 2008 (broadwayspunk's master) FORMAT:  VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Alice Ripley (Diana), Brian d'Arcy James (Dan), Aaron Tveit (Gabe), Jennifer Damiano (Natalie), Adam Chanler-Berat (Henry), Asa Somers (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: This includes Alice's flip out in the beginning to replace all the Costco stuff. It was a fantastic show and an even better video than my previous 3/1/08 master. I shot it in a different style to showcase more of the stage (since you can only stare at someone's face for so long). Really emotional times in the theatre and you can hear sniffles in the camera. Recorded three days before the show was closed and rewritten. Next to Normal - Pre-Broadway / Arena Stage - December 20, 2008 (SunsetBlvd79's master) FORMAT:  VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Alice Ripley (Diana), J Robert Spencer (Dan), Aaron Tveit (Gabe), Jennifer Damiano (Natalie), Adam Chanler-Berat (Henry), Louis Hobson (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: Great capture of the PreBroadway engagement in DC, with no obstructions. I can't say enough about this show and this performance was hands down, lightening in a bottle! A Next to Normal - Pre-Broadway / Arena Stage - December 21, 2008 (SunsetBlvd79's master) FORMAT:  VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Alice Ripley (Diana), J Robert Spencer (Dan), Aaron Tveit (Gabe), Jennifer Damiano (Natalie), Adam Chanler-Berat (Henry), Louis Hobson (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: Excellent rare capture of the PreBroadway DC run. This is when the show finally found focus, took shape and fell into place. Such a remarkable and raw performance from Alice here. If you thought you have seen her best performance, think again! A Next to Normal - TheaterWorks Hartford - 2017 (Pro-Shot's master) FORMAT:  MP4 (HD) CAST: Christiane Noll (Diana), David Harris (Dan), John Cardoza (Gabe), Maya Keleher (Natalie), Nick Sacks (Henry), JD Daw (Dr. Fine/Dr. Madden) NOTES: Beautiful multicam proshot archive for theatre.

The top 10 governor’s races of 2018 heavily favor Democrats

When it comes to gubernatorial races, Republicans say they’re victims of their own success from two great election cycles in a row. Going into 2018, Republicans control a near-record high of 33 governor’s mansions, including a number in blue and swing states.

So the only place for Democrats to go in 2018 may be up. What Democrats win back is critical for the future of their party. Many of the governors in these states will have strong influence over the legislative districts drawn when new Census data arrives in 2020.

A full election cycle before that, Democrats will have a lot of opportunities to chip away at their deficit. Of our top 10 governor races in 2018, eight are for Republican-held seats.

As primaries settle, Republicans have managed to make some seats they’re defending, like Maryland, slightly less competitive. Republican Gov. Larry Hogan is no longer on our list of top 10. Other Republican governors, as in Illinois, look to be in big trouble. Here are the latest top 10 governor’s races, ranked in order of least likely to flip parties (10) to most (1).

10. Wisconsin (Republican held, no previous ranking): Gov. Scott Walker is attempting to do something few governors do successfully: Win a third term. Actually, this will be his fourth statewide election in eight years, since he also won a recall in 2012. Democrats in Wisconsin think this is the year to take out Walker. Tuesday’s primary, where Democrats nominated state school superintendent Tony Evers to take him on, showed signs of a Democratic electorate finally turning out in off-year elections. That may be enough for Democrats to win in a swing state in a tough year for Republicans nationally. Walker knows this; he’s warned of a “blue wave” in his state after several special elections that were alarming for Republicans, but his allies think the battle-tested Walker is ready.

9. Ohio (Republican held seat that will be open in 2018. Previous ranking 9): Ohio is the second of several governor’s mansions in Trump states that Democrats are targeting. Gov. John Kasich is term-limited, and Democrats hope that Republicans’ domination of the state mansion, plus anti-Trump sentiment, plus a liberal hero of sorts in former Consumer Financial Protection Bureau chief Richard Cordray could give them the edge. But it’s not clear if Ohio will go Democratic, given it went for President Trump by nearly 10 points. Polls are all over the place between Cordray and Republicans’ nominee, State Attorney General Mike DeWine.

8. Connecticut (Democratic-held seat that will be open. Previous ranking 8): Democratic Gov. Dannel Malloy has decided not to run for a third term, and with good reason. More than two-thirds of the state disapproves of him, according to polls. Republicans have made this a top target. On Tuesday they nominated Bob Stefanowski, a wealthy former GE executive. Democrats nominated their own wealthy candidate, businessman Ned Lamont. This race may come down to whom Connecticut voters loathe most: Trump, who has endorsed Stefanowski, or their current governor. Something to watch for: Is Stefanowski too tied to Trump to be a Republican governor in a blue state like Charlie Baker in Massachusetts and Larry Hogan in Maryland?

7. Florida (Republican-held open seat in 2018, previous ranking 6): One Republican operative described Florida as the purest toss-up race in 2018. Statewide races in Florida are always close (like, within a percentage point or two). A recent Trump endorsement could benefit Democrats, though. Trump’s endorsement of conservative Rep. Ron DeSantis boosted him in the polls over more establishment picks ahead of the Aug. 28 primary. Democrats hope DeSantis is too conservative and too Trump-like (he recently ran an ad of himself helping his toddler daughter build a wall with blocks). The Democratic primary is still up in the air; the strongest nominee would probably be former congresswoman Gwen Graham.

6. Nevada (Republican-held seat that will be open in 2018. Previous ranking 5): Nevada moves slightly less competitive for Democrats, mostly as a function of other races looking more competitive for Democrats. Democrats are trying to keep their up-and-down-the-ballot success in 2016 going by taking the governor’s mansion from term-limited Brian Sandoval. Their nominee is Democratic Clark County Commissioner Steve Sisolak. Not helping Republicans is that Sandoval, one of the most popular politicians in the state, has so far declined to offer his endorsement to the Republican nominee, Attorney General Adam Laxalt. Recent polls show the race close.

5. Michigan (Republican-held seat that will be open in 2018. Previous ranking 7): Of the past three toss-up races, Michigan looks the most favorable to Democrats right now. Trump won it by less than a percentage point, and outgoing Gov. Rick Snyder is highly unpopular. His handling of the Flint water crisis could taint his wannabe successor, Trump-backed Republican Attorney General Bill Schuette. Democrats are excited about their nominee, Gretchen Whitmer, the former party leader in the state Senate. Republicans acknowledge winning Michigan will be tough but think Whitmer is vulnerable to attacks.

4. Maine (Republican-held seat that will be open in 2018. Previous ranking 2): What could still be a top pickup opportunity for Democrats feels a little more competitive for Republicans now that the nominees are set. Republican businessman Shawn Moody has plenty of money to try to outrun the large shadow cast by outgoing, unpopular GOP Gov. Paul LePage. Polls show the race tied between him and Democrat Attorney General Janet Mills, who Democrats feel is a strong nominee. But could two third-party candidates take away votes from Mills, given Maine is a state with a strong independent streak that also leans a touch left? Ranked-choice voting, which Maine voters instituted this summer, might prevent such a scenario by lumping the candidates all together. But that won’t be in effect for the general election.

3. Alaska (Independent held. Previous ranking 3): Gov. Bill Walker is the only independent governor in office right now, and he could soon realize the perils of not having a major-party backer. Republicans are already making an effort to oust him, and former Democratic U.S. senator Mark Begich getting into the race has put this on the radar for Democrats. Republicans think former state senator Mike Dunleavy will win Tuesday’s primary. This could be one of the most endangered governor’s mansions in America if anyone drops out by the Sept. 4 deadline, depending how a two-way battle shapes up.

2. Illinois (Republican held. Previous ranking 4): This is probably the most drastic move on our list. Everyone we spoke to agrees that Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner is one of the, if not the, most vulnerable governors in America, despite his billions. He’s facing another billionaire, J.B. Pritzker, of one of the wealthiest families in the country. What happens when two billionaires clash can be unpredictable, but the emergence of a third-party conservative candidate, state senator Sam McCann, really hurts Rauner’s already iffy chances for reelection.

1. New Mexico (Republican-held seat that will be open in 2018. Previous ranking 1): The state is trending blue (Hillary Clinton won it by nearly 10 points), it’s a majority-minority state and the outgoing governor, Republican Susan Martinez, isn’t very popular. That’s a recipe for a Democratic pick-up. This race pits two members of Congress, Democratic Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham and Republican Rep. Stevan Pearce, and some analysts’ polling shared with The Fix shows Lujan Grisham up by 8 to 9 points.

Welcome to Pollapalooza, our weekly polling roundup.

Poll of the week

Charlie Baker, Larry Hogan and Phil Scott should get T-shirts made up. In the first quarter of 2018, according to Morning Consult, they were the first-, second- and fourth-most-popular governors in America.1 And that’s despite sharing one surprising commonality: They are Republicans in three of the country’s bluest states. If they were a band, they’d be called Maroon Three — red castaways enisled in a sea of blue.

This week, Morning Consult released their updated ranking of America’s most popular governors, and, like last quarter again, Baker and Hogan topped the list. A full 69 percent of voters in Massachusetts — whose FiveThirtyEight partisan lean2 is 24 points more Democratic-leaning than the nation at large — approved of the job Baker was doing, while only 17 percent disapproved. The story was almost exactly the same in Maryland, another D+24 state: Hogan received a 68 percent approval rating and a 17 percent disapproval rating.

But Scott might get voted off the island. While he had a 65-21 approval-disapproval rating among Vermonters in the first quarter, he has fallen to 47 percent approval, 42 percent disapproval in this week’s findings, tarnishing his both-sides-of-the-street cred. The likeliest reason for the plummet in his popularity is a landmark gun-control law he signed in April amid protests in this historically gun-friendly state.

The new numbers cast doubt on the widely held assumption that Scott will cruise to re-election in 2018. But if he is indeed in danger, it may be in the Aug. 14 GOP primary rather than the general election. That’s because his popularity has eroded dramatically among Vermont’s Republicans, dropping by 26 points since last quarter. According to Morning Consult, Scott amazingly now has a higher approval rating among Democrats (who approve of him 61 percent to 31 percent) than Republicans (who disapprove 56 percent to 41 percent). If he survives his primary challenge from a pro-gun business owner, Scott still starts in a good position to win the votes of the state’s many Democrats.

And he’s not alone in his cross-party appeal. Baker is about equally popular among Democrats (who approve of him 70 percent to 17 percent) and Republicans (who approve 69 percent to 20 percent). Hogan can’t boast the same, but I imagine he’s still pretty happy with his support across the political spectrum: 62 percent of Democrats approve of his performance vs. 23 percent who disapprove. Republicans approve of him 82 percent to 10 percent.

Those numbers sound impressive — and they are — but they’re not as unusual as you might think. Support for governors frequently defies partisanship, at least if you define “partisanship” by people’s presidential preferences. Gubernatorial elections have gotten more nationalized in recent decades, but many voters still see state and federal elections as fundamentally different ballgames. There is basically no correlation between each governor’s net approval rating3 in the latest Morning Consult poll and his or her state’s partisan lean. Some governors are right in line with the partisanship of their states, such as Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee (a +18 net approval rating in D+13 Washington). But others have brands that distinguish them from their parties and make them way more popular (or unpopular) than partisanship alone would predict.

We can quantify each governor’s “Popularity Above Replacement Governor” (or PARG) by measuring the distance between their net approval rating and their state’s partisan lean. By this measurement, Scott is still doing pretty well. He’s 31 points more popular than a generic Republican “should” be in Vermont, good for the seventh-highest score in the country.

Introducing ‘Popularity Above Replacement Governor’

Governors’ net approval rating relative to the partisan lean* of their state

Governor State Name Party Net Approval State Partisan Lean PARG Massachusetts Baker R +52 D+24 +76 Maryland Hogan R +51 D+24 +75 Montana Bullock D +20 R+21 +41 Nevada Sandoval R +37 D+1 +38 New Hampshire Sununu R +39 R+1 +38 Louisiana Edwards D +14 R+22 +36 Vermont P.

Note: A Democratic governor with a net approval of +2 in an R+7 state has a PARG of +9 (2+7 = 9). If the same state had a Republican governor with the same approval rating, the PARG would be -5 (2-7= -5). Alaska’s Bill Walker was omitted from this list because he’s an independent.

*A state’s partisan lean is the average difference between how the district voted and how the country voted overall in the last two presidential elections, with 2016 weighted 75 percent and 2012 weighted 25 percent.

It’s not surprising that the two governors with the highest PARG are also the two most popular governors overall. Think about it: If a governor appeals only to their own party, there’s a ceiling on how popular they can become. (Even the most lopsided state in the 2016 election, Wyoming, gave only 68 percent of its votes to President Trump.) To break through that barrier, you need to have crossover appeal. When you’re a Republican in a dark-red state, there’s no real incentive to build on that base — you’re going to win your next election anyway. But Republicans in blue states (and Democrats in red states) are forced to win over voters on the other side. Otherwise, they can’t get elected. As long as those voters continue to approve of their actions in office, the sky’s the limit for these governors’ approval ratings.

Other polling nuggets

An NBC News/Marist poll that was making the rounds Wednesday included some stunning numbers from a trio of Midwestern states. When asked whether Trump deserves re-election, Michigan voters said 62 percent to 28 percent that someone else should be given a chance. Minnesota voters agreed 60 percent to 30 percent, as did Wisconsin voters, 63 percent to 31 percent. The problem, though, with these types of polls is that a presidential election is a choice, not a referendum. It’s easy for voters to hear a question like that and measure up Trump against their ideal candidate. But the Democrats’ 2020 nominee won’t be every voter’s ideal candidate, and Trump won’t lose these states by 30-plus points, either.

Americans are split on Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh. According to a Quinnipiac poll, 40 percent of voters said the Senate should confirm him, while 41 percent said it should not. Eighty percent of Republicans but only 11 percent of Democrats said Kavanaugh should be confirmed.

33 percent of Americans approve of Trump’s handling of his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki this month, according to an ABC/Washington Post poll; 50 percent disapprove. That’s in line with the Quinnipiac poll, which found 27 percent said the summit was a success, while 52 percent said it was a failure.

33 percent of Americans said they think the FBI is “biased against the Trump administration,” as opposed to “just trying to do their job,” according to a Marist poll. That’s up from 23 percent in February.

A poll from the Pew Research Center found a decline in the FBI’s favorability from 71 percent in September 2016 to 65 percent now. That may not seem like much of a change, but the topline numbers mask a growing partisan divide.

A Monmouth University poll shows that Democrat Conor Lamb has a double-digit lead on Republican Keith Rothfus in Pennsylvania’s 17th District. The district was newly drawn from bits of other districts by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, making this the only House race that pits incumbents against each other.

A YouGov poll found that 49 percent of Americans said they believe it is either “definitely” or “probably” true that millions of illegal votes were cast in the 2016 presidential election. That includes 42 percent of Democrats as well as 59 percent of Republicans.

In addition to the governors survey, Morning Consult also released job approval numbers for every member of the Senate. Vermont’s Bernie Sanders had the highest approval rating, while Kentucky’s Mitch McConnell had the highest disapproval rating.

70 percent of Americans said in a YouGov poll that, of the five senses, they would miss sight the most if they lost it; 7 percent said they would miss hearing the most, 5 percent said taste, 3 percent said touch, and 2 percent said smell.

48 percent of registered voters said in a Morning Consult poll that the label “milk” should not be used to market non-dairy beverages; 23 percent said the label should be used. That comes after the head of the FDA suggested last week that non-dairy products may not meet the FDA’s official definition of milk, noting that “an almond doesn’t lactate.”

Trump approval

This week, Trump’s net approval rating sits at -11.7 percentage points, according to our tracker: 41.3 percent approve of his job performance and 53 percent disapprove. Last week, the spread was a bit smaller, at -11.0 points (a 41.8 percent approval rating compared with a 52.8 percent disapproval rating). He was slightly more popular a month ago, when his net approval rating was -9.5 points. Back then, 42.2 percent approved and 51.7 percent disapproved of his performance.

Generic ballot

According to FiveThirtyEight’s model of generic congressional ballot polling, 48.1 percent of voters prefer Democrats and 39.9 percent prefer Republicans. That 8.2-point margin has reverted to the mean a bit from Democrats’ unusually wide 9.3-point lead (Democrats 48.7 percent, Republicans 39.4 percent) last week, but it’s definitely much better for them than the 5.7-point lead (Democrats 46.4 percent, Republicans 40.7 percent) they held this time last month.

Check out all the polls we’ve been collecting ahead of the 2018 midterms.

BOSTON (STATE HOUSE) – Gov. Charlie Baker is back on top, leapfrogging over his counterparts in North Dakota and Maryland to again claim the title “Most Popular Governor in America,” according to a national poll released Tuesday.

The Morning Consult poll asked 85,000 registered voters across America to evaluate the job performance of their governors from January 2017 through March 2017, and Baker reclaimed the top spot after falling to third last fall.

The survey showed 75 percent of voters approve of the job Baker is doing as governor, with 17 percent disapproving and 9 percent reporting no opinion of Baker’s job. Baker’s 75 percent approval rating puts him two points higher than Gov. Larry Hogan of Maryland, whom Morning Consult compared to Baker.

“Both governors have reputations as shrewd, bipartisan dealmakers who value results over party purity, and their constituents seem to appreciate that style,” the poll organizers wrote.

Baker during his tenure in the governor’s office has emphasized his belief in bipartisanship, rarely tying himself to partisan standpoints. Last session, he worked with Democrats to pass major bills dealing with renewable energy, opioid addiction and pay equity. This year, he vetoed legislation granting pay raises to lawmakers and statewide officeholders, mostly Democrats, but did not object to the legislation during its path to passage and did not mount an aggressive campaign against it.

On Monday, House Democrats, showing a rare level of comfort with the state’s top Republican officeholder, authorized Baker to implement an assessment on employers to pay for public health care and opted to let the governor work out the details of the plan.

In September, 70 percent of Massachusetts voters polled by Morning Consult approved of Baker’s performance, 18 percent disapproved and 11 percent had no opinion. In that poll, he had been supplanted by Hogan and South Dakota Gov. Gov. Dennis Daugaard.

Baker has plenty of company from fellow Republicans on the popularity totem pole, as the 13 most popular governors in the country are Republicans.

But the GOP tent also includes New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — whom Baker endorsed for president before Christie dropped out and got behind Donald Trump — who on Tuesday was named America’s least popular governor. In the Garden State, 25 percent of voters approve of Christie’s performance while 71 percent said they disapprove of his work.

The least popular Democratic governor in the country is Connecticut’s Dannel Malloy, a second-term executive who has a 29 percent approval rating and 66 disapproval rating, according to Morning Consult. The most popular Democratic governor is West Virginia’s first term Gov. Jim Justice, according to the poll.
