The new Muhlenberg daily tracking poll of the Pennsylvania Senate race suggests Republican Pat Toomey is solidifying his lead again, after Democrat Joe Sestak was previously closing the gap.
The numbers: Toomey 48%, Sestak 40%. The survey of likely voters has a ±5% margin of error.
In yesterday’s tracking poll — which overlaps today’s numbers by three days of sampling, out of four days each — Toomey led by 47%-42%. By contrast, the tracking poll released last Friday had the two tied at 43%-43%.
The TPM Poll Average still shows a very close race: Toomey 45.8%, Sestak 44.0%.
