NC-08 Kissell up by 11

In a new poll (h/t to Betsy at BlueNC Larry Kissell has a big lead on Robin Hayes.

As many of you likely know, Larry lost by just over 300 votes out of 120,000 cast in 2006.  He is back in force this time, with a lot of help on the air from the DCCC, and with a greatly expanded ground game.  What has that lead to?

Robin Hayes (R-inc) 43%

Larry Kissell (D) 54%

This is a Greenberg, Quinlan poll for the DCCC, 4.9% MOE.  The poll also showed Obama up 12 and Hagan up 14.  Most of the big movement to Larry is due to the fact that a majority of voters in this district know that Larry will do a better job on the economy, and will do more to protect workers.

  1. Those are some nice numbers but blue south is right about it seeming a little inflated.

    It’s to early to tell if the Big MO Democrats are getting in NC will hold but Kissell is probably even or up within a hypo margin of error.
