Poll: Late-deciding voters lean Republican in seven key Senate races

A poll released Sunday night finds that likely voters who made up their minds only recently in seven key Senate races lean toward Republican candidates by a nine-point margin. That stands out because the same survey shows Democrats with an overall advantage across those contests.

The report also notes that some voters are still undecided, so the numbers could keep moving before the election.

Why it matters A poll is a snapshot, not a final result. When people settle on a choice late, they can narrow or reshape a lead that looked comfortable earlier. This survey suggests the last-minute group in these races leans differently than likely voters as a whole. The early details don't say how big that group is, so it's wise not to read too much into one number.

What to watch Whether undecided voters pick a side in the final days, and how closely the actual results match the polling. If you plan to vote, confirm your polling place and ballot details through official local election sources.
