Unless it’s an ultra-competitive toss-up race, there’s typically not a lot of publicly available polling for congressional elections.
So when Inland Republican congressional candidate Paul Chabot saw an appeal for donations from his Democratic opponent that described a tied race, he fired off an email blast quoting the email from Rep. Pete Aguilar’s campaign.
Chabot’s email included an excerpt from the Aguilar mail. “But latest polls have us TIED with our opponent,” it read.
“Aguilar knows he is in trouble,” Chabot wrote. “Based on this weekend’s fundraising plea to donors, it is clear his campaign does not like their polling results.”
“Two months ago, the Chabot for Congress campaign released a poll showing the race tied at 43% - with Chabot winning over Independents by 8-points. Clearly, Aguilar’s polls show the same.”
But according to Aguilar campaign spokesman Lou Wasson, the poll Aguilar referred to was Chabot’s. Wasson cited a Press-Enterprise blog post about Chabot’s poll.

The hordes of Latino voters showing up at polls to defeat Trump is an Urban Myth.
You GOP folks are taking over the crab pot analogy.
Chair is a loser
No Aztec Queen, your reading of Hispanics is all wrong, Trump’s hatred is bringing them out…good riddance !
Chabot has never had a real job. He reminds me of Stienorth on how he has sucked up to the political hacks to get what he wants. Anti marijuana guy with his cohort David the security guard. Sad. They might want to go to the animal shelters with Steinorth. He is now making laws to help adopt animals. This is what we get people. The state is out of control and we elect total morons who stay on the government payroll the rest of their lives. I’m sorry for the guy in Riversiide county GOP who sent the email out with the guy with the axe making threats. He had a give me government appointed job too. Like Chabot did. Not really a job. An appointed suck up position. Well I’m sure Steinorth can open the Lincoln club up and allow for more of these so called political wantabes to come in. Stupid! Mills is right there with them on his kness and sometimes face down because he passed out.
No love for Chabot. He has his reserve deputy or reserve navy costum on in most of his political pictures. How about wearing your security guard uniform with your campaign buddy David for pictures. That would be great.
God bless
Bet money Chabot can’t fill out a CHP 180 tow report without making multiple errors. I’d love to read one of his crime reports if he ever took one.
This is his 3rd attempt to get elected?
That is a red flag by itself.
Chabot got awful upset when the Marijuanna Nurse challenged him at one of his gatherings.
That dust up in the courts between those two was a EPIC failure for Chabot. The Nurse kicked his butt without the assistance of legal council. OUCH!
I am no AguLIAR fan either after seeing him with his head up Hillary’s arse.
If I recall right, Chabot’s foundation knows how to milk money from the government. I believe his was able to get an award close to a million dollars.
#6, You really think Hillary knows who he is?
Yeah I saw them at a rally, Aguliar introduced her.
Ken, Chabot probably can’t fill out a job applications either.
Milstar, the Clintons are famous for knowing everyone and being able to call them in for favors. Bill Clinton in particular in known for his ability to connect. My cousin recieved an honer from Bill Clinton in the Oval Office of the White House. Second hand I am told that for that brief moment, Bill Clinton was able to make my cousin feel like the only person of importance in the universe.
So yes, Hillary Clinton would know and associate with Aguilar.
Aguilar is a typical democrat hack, incompetent, stupid and brain dead
#12, that describes a lot of followers on both sides, who blindly follow the party mantra rather than researching and making individual decisions. That does, however, definitely describe Aguilar. He will want to be sure to not get too close, or he might get “vince fostered” (or the updated verb, “seth riched”). Another election of NO GOOD choices, at every level, from top down. We deserve better.
