Republican pollster Strategic Vision takes another look at both the primary fields in the Georgia governor’s race (sorry, no general election matchups). As their previous polls have shown, Insurance Comm. John Oxendine has a head start on the GOP field, while former Gov. Roy Barnes leads the Dems. Strategic Vision has repeatedly shown AG Thurbert Baker polling much stronger than Rasmussen.
Strategic Vision (R) (7/17-19, likely voters, 6-19/21 in parentheses):
Jon Corzine (D-inc): 38 (39)
Chris Christie (R): 53 (51)
Christopher Daggett (I): 5 (N/A)
Undecided: 4 (8)
(MoE: ±3%)
Strategic Vision also takes a look at the New Jersey’s governor’s race. This is very consistent with the most recent Quinnipiac and Rasmussen polls. Suffice it to say that if Jon Corzine is going to start making a move, now would be the time to do it.
I haven’t heard about him doing a thing besides that event with Obama.
It would be wonderful to avoid a runoff while the Republicans have to deal with an expensive primary that may or may not involve lawsuits.
right now Corzine’s best move could be changing his name.
When are the debates going to be between Christie, Daggett, and Corzine. I think those might help Corzine out.
Must be a total screwup to be losing this badly in NJ of all places.
I have a bad feeling Blue America is about to fracture, at least at the gubernatorial level. New Jersey looks lost, Pennsylvania might be tough, Rhode Island might not be the easy pickup we all thought, Michigan might be tough to hold, maybe even Ohio too (with an incumbent even though OH is definitely Purple)
now if only Baker would take these polls, realize he isn’t going to beat Barnes, and run for Senate instead.
