Poll: Kevin Cramer (R) - 56%; Heidi Heitkamp (D - Incumbent) - 40%; The Latter With A 52% Unfavorable Rating -- October 22, 2018

Back on October 18, 2018, I said I was eager to see the first poll after the last debate between Kevin Cramer and Heidi Heitkamp, North Dakota, US Senate. This was the last poll before the last debate:
It will be interesting to see the overnight polling.

Most recent poll at this link:

It may be hard to read but prior to their last debate, on October 3, 2018, the poll showed:
  • Cramer: 50%
  • Heitkamp: 41%
  • Cramer: 56%
  • Heitkamp: 40%
It looks like the undecideds have decided. The Heitkamp "%" pretty much stayed the same.

But, even more interesting. Look at the "unfavorable" rating for Heitkamp: 52%. 

From the linked article:
Heitkamp is viewed favorably by 37 percent of North Dakota voters and unfavorably by 52 percent, with 7 percent holding a neutral opinion and 4 percent unfamiliar. That unfavorable number represents a significant increase since September, when only 41 percent held an unfavorable view of her. Her challenger is viewed favorably by 53 percent of likely voters (a 7-point increase over September) and unfavorably by 38 percent, with 5 percent holding a neutral opinion and 4 percent unfamiliar with him.
I found it interesting that KFYR didn't post the "16% gap" in the headline.

Call me crazy, but one wonders if something similar might be happening in Texas?
