In the Connecticut U.S. Senate race, Ned Lamont (D) has surged ahead of Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-CT) and now holds a razor-thin 51% to 47% lead among likely Democratic primary voters, according to a new Quinnipiac poll.
Amazing!
This is great new folks. I'm sorry for the short diary, but I thought this should be posted....
As for the general election
Lieberman defeats Republican challenger Alan Schlesinger 68% to 15%
Lamont beats Schlesinger 45% to 22%, with 24% undecided
Running as an independent, Lieberman gets 51%, to 27% for Lamont and 9% for Schlesinger.
I still say that if Lieberman loses the primary, he will be hurt so bad that he'll only be a blip on the radar come the general election.
Senator Lamont...I look forward to your 6 years in the US Senate!
Further Analysis by pollster:
Says pollster Douglas Schwartz: "Lamont is up, while Lieberman's Democratic support is dropping. More Democrats have a favorable opinion of Lamont, who was largely unknown last month, and see him as an acceptable alternative to Lieberman. But Lieberman's strength among Republicans and independents gives him the lead in a three-way matchup in November."
