A new Rasmussen poll of the Connecticut gubernatorial race shows Democratic nominee Dan Malloy leading Republican Tom Foley 48%-33% in the race to fill retiring GOP Gov. Jodi Rell’s seat.
The new Rasmussen poll is the first survey conducted following Connecticut’s August 10 gubernatorial primaries. The last Rasmussen poll, from early June, showed Malloy up 44%-35%. The new Rasmussen survey’s findings are similiar to an August 2 Quinnipiac poll, which put Malloy up 46%-31%.
The TPM Poll Average puts Malloy on top 47.3%-31.2%. The latest Rasmussen poll’s margin of error is ±4.5 percentage points.
