Polling averages collected by Axios show potentially make-or-break gaps between Trump and his allies, signaling that even a close Trump victory in crucial swing states will not guarantee a victory for the candidates he endorsed. In Ohio, Trump-endorsed Senate candidate Bernie Moreno is averaging only 42 percent to Trump’s 51.5 percent — the largest gap between Trump and his pack of Senate hopefuls. Pennsylvania Senate candidate David McCormick is polling at 44.8 percent to Trump’s 48.2 percent, and Nevada’s Sam Brown is averaging only 40.7 percent while Trump is at 47.6 percent.
