What has to be true
  1. Wade wins 50 percent of the ticket splitters now leaning Brecheen.
  2. The national environment moves about 42.4 points toward Wade'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.
