Grove Insight for the DCCC (10/4-5, likely voters, 8/17-19 in parens):
Gary Peters (D): 46 (41)
Joe Knollenberg (R-inc): 37 (37)
Jack Kevorkian (I): 2 (8)
Undecided: 15 (14)
(MoE: ±4.9%)
While these numbers may be a bit on the optimistic side (Peters is ahead by three in his own internal polling, and another recent poll has the race tied), the trend lines are the most important take-away.
Faced with ugly poll numbers and an economic crisis in his district, it’s perhaps no surprise that the only thing that Knollenberg can say is: “Sarah, HALP!“
