    4,764 voters who split their ticket in recent elections and lean Clark today.
    +4,764
  • M
    Mobilize

  • C
    Consolidate

    +178

Plus a national shift of 41.6 points of margin (112,891 votes) that no campaign controls.

What has to be true
  1. Chavez wins 50 percent of the ticket splitters now leaning Clark.
  2. The national environment moves about 41.6 points toward Chavez's side between now and November 3.
  3. No 2026 public poll exists for this race, so the starting line is a weighted blend of official recent results; the first real poll will move it.
