Republican-turned-Democrat Sen. Arlen Specter’s reelection is shaping up to be a battle, with a new Quinnipiac poll in Pennsylvania showing a tight race in the general election for Senate, regardless of whether Specter or primary challenger Rep. Joe Sestak earn the nomination.
Specter is tied with GOP challenger Pat Toomey if they face a rematch, and if Sestak wins the nod Toomey holds a 40%-35% lead.
Eric Kleefeld has the details, including the Specter v. Sestak numbers, here.
