I’m too excited to type anything. Here it is!
I just saw that King 5 TV reported a new Survey USA poll, Darcy is up 50-46 over Reichert. The ad which pointed out that he’s ineffective really knocked him down, the first time his reputation has been damaged in any serious way. Reichert’s even set up a site, http://www.davereichertdeliver… to rebut the claims.
He has $725k of TV on the air right now just this week, in all likelihood thanks to an illegal corporate contribution from Republican media buying firm Media Plus.
But I’ll take your word for it. Great news for Darcy. I had almost given up on her. She showed no movement in the polls for a long time.
This is the second or third poll showing this. My estimate of the district generic split is about 53D/47R. Reichart lost his crossover Democratic (-leaner) support to the bailout problem and is not going to get them back. Congrats, Darcy- this was a tough one.
