WA-08: Burner Leads by 5 in Dem Poll

Bennett Petts & Normington for the DCCC (10/8-9, likely voters):

Darcy Burner (D): 49

Dave Reichert (R): 44

(MoE: ±4.9%)

This one comes hot on the heels of two recent polls by Research 2000 and Lake Research, both of which showed Reichert ahead by 8 and 3 points, respectively. Given that this is the first poll we’ve seen that has Burner leading, I’m a bit more inclined to believe that this race leans more in the direction of R2K and Lake’s findings. Hopefully KING5-TV will commission another SurveyUSA poll of this race soon, so that we can get a better picture of where this one stands.
