OH-Sen: Fisher Opens Up a 17-Point Lead in Dem Primary

Quinnipiac University Polling Institute (4/22-26, likely voters, 3/25-28 in parens):

Lee Fisher (D): 41 (33)

Jennifer Brunner (D): 24 (26)

Undecided: 34 (40)

(MoE: ±3.1%)

That’s the power of actually being able to spend banked cash, folks, as Lee Fisher has basically had the airwaves to himself over the past couple of weeks. Will Jennifer Brunner be able to keep things interesting on election night?

  1. What’s the deal with the Dem candidates’ fundraising. You’d think in a competitive race like this they’d be able to match Portman. Not even close.

    Portman $8.5 million

    Fisher $3.9 million

    Brunner $850K

  2. …all his money on the primary.

    His fundraising is mediocre for a big state U.S. Senate race, even though not pitiful, either.  He needs as big a haul as he can pull in for the general, and still probably will need a LOT of DSCC independent expenditures to keep it a tossup going into November.

    And making me even more nervous about Fisher is the fact we can’t say Brunner’s candidacy is cutting into his fundraising!

  3. She is not gonna win this thing, but what she could do would be to weaken Fisher for the general in November.
