Republican Bill Cassidy has opened up a 13-point lead over Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) in a head-to-head matchup, according to a new Fox News poll of likely voters.
On the main ballot, Cassidy leads Landrieu by a narrower 4 points, but there are two other Republicans in the race. The contest will go to a runoff between the top two candidates if none of them break the 50 percent threshold.
In an expected Landrieu-Cassidy runoff, Cassidy leads by 51 percent to 38 percent, the Fox News poll found. Nine percent said they didn’t know and 2 percent said they wouldn’t vote.
The poll, conducted Sept. 14-16, has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
It’s OK, Mary…Eric Cantor’s bank will make you a lobbyist.
As Truman said, people will vote for a real Republican over a Democrat pretending to be a Replican.
A Fox News poll? You mean the polling outfit that, in 2008, increased its sample size of Republicans in order to get John McCain within 3 points of Obama because Karl Rove said that’s where he needed to be in order to have a chance to win?
Sorry, but I consider them less reliable than Sahir Kapur’s speculations about the Republicans shutting down the government.
Oh. Ok.
My thoughts exactly…a new FOX NEWS POLL of LIKELY VOTERS…
which basically means inaccurate as all get out.
