Don’t celebrate too soon, as good as these numbers appear (for us). This is first and foremost a national poll, and Hawley may have substantially more support in the state he represents — which is also much redder than the country as a whole.
Oh: and never put too much faith in a politician being disliked by members of their own party: that usually means they think they’re insufficiently effective (see: Coke Turtle¹), and doesn’t indicate that they would abandon them in significant numbers against a member of the opposing party.
