MA Senate Race:Public Policy Poll Has Brown Up by 5% Points Over Coakley
Posted in: 2010 Elections,Mass: Scott Brown (R) - Martha Coakley (D),Politics,Polls,Senate Elections
WOW!!! COULD THIS REALLY BECOME A REALITY!!!
The most recent Public Policy Polling’sfinal survey shows that Republican Scott Brown is up 51% to 46% over Democrat Martha Coakley. The shift of Independents to Brown has become glaring. As Brown captures more and more of the Indies, it is showing that Brown represents the candidate of “uniting” rather than politics as usual in Washington, DC. After all, Brown is looking to win the Massachusetts “Peoples” seat.
Scott Brown leads Martha Coakley 51-46 in our final Massachusetts Senate poll, an advantage that is within the margin of error for the poll.
Over the last week Brown has continued his dominance with independents and increased his ability to win over Obama voters as Coakley’s favorability numbers have declined into negative territory. At the same time Democratic leaning voters have started to take more interest in the election, a trend that if it continues in the final 36 hours of the campaign could put her over the finish line.
The following are some truly striking numbers from the PPP via the Politico:
-Brown is up 64-32 with independents and is winning 20% of the vote from people who supported Barack Obama in 2008while Coakley is getting just 4% of the McCain vote.
-Those planning to turn out continue to be skeptical of the Democratic health care plan, saying they oppose it by a 48/40 margin.
Weasel Zippers could not have stated it any better … Hope & Change in Massachusetts.
