Quinnipiac (8/3-8, likely voters, 7/28-8/2 in parens):

Tom Foley (R): 38 (41)

Mike Fedele (R): 30 (26)

Oz Griebel (R): 17 (13)

Undecided: 14 (21)

(MoE: 3.8%)

Ned Lamont (D): 45 (45)

Dan Malloy (D): 42 (40)

Undecided: 12 (14)

(MoE: 4.6%)

Quinnipiac finds some major movement for both Lt. Gov. Mike Fedele and Stamford Mayor Dan Malloy in the Republican and Democratic gubernatorial primaries, respectively. That’s the power of well-timed attack ads at work, and it should make for an exciting evening tomorrow night.

General election numbers (7/28-8/2, registered voters, 7/7-13 in parens):

Ned Lamont (D): 48 (49)

Michael Fedele (R): 33 (27)

Undecided: 14 (19)

Ned Lamont (D): 46 (45)

Tom Foley (R): 33 (33)

Undecided: 17 (17)

Ned Lamont (D): 50 (49)

Oz Greibel (R): 27 (25)

Undecided: 19 (21)

Dan Malloy (D): 47 (39)

Michael Fedele (R): 30 (26)

Undecided: 18 (20)

Dan Malloy (D): 46 (44)

Tom Foley (R): 31 (33)

Undecided: 16 (19)

Dan Malloy (D): 50 (51)

Oz Greibel (R): 25 (25)

Undecided: 18 (21)

(MoE: ±2.7%)

The boys in blue still look pretty good, but we’ll see how the shape of this race will change once Quinnipiac adjusts to a likely voter screen.

Finally, we’ve got some numbers from the on again/off again GOP Senate primary (8/3-8, likely voters, 7/28-8/2 in parens). And don’t call it a comeback…

Linda McMahon (R): 50 (47)

Rob Simmons (R): 28 (30)

Peter Schiff (R) : 15 (14)

Undecided: 7 (8)

(MoE: ±3.8%)

…because it ain’t. A Rob Simmons victory tomorrow night would either be an epic polling fail or a spectacular late-game change of heart in the GOP electorate.

The final piece — Senatorial general election numbers (7/28-8/2, registered voters, 7/7-13 in parens):

Richard Blumenthal (D): 50 (54)

Linda McMahon (R): 40 (37)

Undecided: 7 (7)

Richard Blumenthal (D): 55 (55)

Rob Simmons (R): 35 (35)

Undecided: 7 (9)

Richard Blumenthal (D): 57 (58)

Peter Schiff (R): 30 (31)

Undecided: 9 (9)

(MoE: ±2.7%)

Quinnipiac (7/7-13, likely primary voters, no trend lines):

Tom Foley (R): 48

Mike Fedele (R): 13

Oz Griebel (R): 7

Undecided: 32

(MoE: 3.4%)

Ned Lamont (D): 46

Dan Malloy (D): 37

Undecided: 16

(MoE: 3.8%)

Since Quinnipiac has shifted for the first time to a likely primary voter model away from merely registered voters, I’m leaving out any trend lines (though you can see their last primary poll here). However, Quinnipiac also tested the primaries without a likely voter screen, which resulted in a 43-9 lead for Foley over Fedele and a 46-26 lead for Ned Lamont over Stamford Mayor Dan Malloy.

Lamont is also looking pretty good in the general election — and so is Dan Malloy (registered voters, 1/14-19 in parens):

Ned Lamont (D): 49 (41)

Michael Fedele (R): 27 (32)

Undecided: 19 (23)

Ned Lamont (D): 45 (38)

Tom Foley (R): 33 (36)

Undecided: 17 (21)

Ned Lamont (D): 49

Oz Greibel (R): 25

Undecided: 21

Dan Malloy (D): 49 (37)

Michael Fedele (R): 26 (31)

Undecided: 20 (27)

Dan Malloy (D): 44 (37)

Tom Foley (R): 33 (33)

Undecided: 19 (24)

Dan Malloy (D): 51

Oz Greibel (R): 25

Undecided: 21

(MoE: ±2.7%)

The Republicans in this race are still generally very unknown (nearly 60% of registered voters haven’t heard enough about Foley, a former US Ambassador, to form an opinion of him, and nearly 80% feel the same about Fedele, the current Lt. Governor), but Lamont and Malloy are starting off in fairly good shape, approval-wise. Lamont has a 49-21 favorable rating, indicating he’s been able to shake off any baggage he may have accumulated from his big-spending ’06 campaign, and Malloy is looking sharp, too, at 41-11. Not a bad place to be at all.
