Kobach still leads by 683 votes. This is not the huge boost of moderates many Colyer voters predicted would come. #KSGov - still 62% to be counted

New CBS tracking poll -
Voters divided on whether they want a progressive or moderate Democrat. Republicans overwhelmingly want candidates more like Trump
1/3 Independent voters in battleground districts say it doesn't matter who wins control of Congress... after experiencing Paul Ryan's legislative agenda, voters shrugged
a majority of voters say the media inaccurately portrays Donald Trump
Here's a short tweetstorm about how the polling industry provides #FakeNews with coverage: (worth the read for anyone who cares about elections)
Quinnipiac has a new poll out, Trump down by 20 points and the media is already tweeting and covering it but the sample size does not reflect the American electorate at all.
Quinnipiac is notoriously bad for their methodology and changing their sample sizes. This is the last 4 polls. Wide ranges of D+2 to D+6 with a huge amount of indies who don't disclose their political leanings

WaPo poll: 83% of voters in battleground districts support E-Verify. That's higher than the amount that support amnesty for the DACAs. Next time you hear of a bipartisan deal, E-Verify is as bipartisan as it gets
A lot of people have been asking me over the last 12 hours why I'm pushing for #HopeHicks to be @realDonaldTrump's new CoS so let me explain:
1) Kelly is leaving... yes, I know what Trump said, I know what Kelly said... but take I know enough people in the WH to know, Kelly is leaving.
2) Personel is policy, the next CoS will be responsible for hiring and overseeing the hiring of many important positions. Under Kelly, MANY Never-Trumpers have been brought into the administration. Trump's base who cares about #MAGA cannot afford another year of this
