New poll in the IN Senate race’s GOP primary!<\/p>\n
Done yesterday. Out today. It was commissioned by SC Senator Jim DeMint’s PAC…the Senate Conservatives Fund. Wenzel Strategies Research out of Columbus OH did the work. Here are the results:<\/p>\n
Undecided \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a030%<\/p>\n
Dan Coats \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 28%<\/p>\n
John Hostettler \u00a0 18%<\/p>\n
Marlin Stutzman 18%<\/p>\n
Richard Behney \u00a0 \u00a0 3%<\/p>\n
Don Bates Jr. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a03%<\/p>\n
The survey was of 801 like Republican primary voters…again all spoken to yesterday over the phone. The margin of error for this poll is plus\/minus 3.43%.<\/p>\n
REPORTER INTERPRETATION: Coats…the best known candidate is out in front outside the margin of error. But…and this is a huge qualifier…”Undecided\/Not Sure” was ahead at the time of this poll…which was yesterday…5-days before primary day coming up on Tuesday, May 4th.<\/p>\n
The poll is also commissioned by DeMint’s PAC and is solidly behind the Stutzman campaign. The Senate Conservatives Fund has reportedly poured in $200,000 into the Stutzman campaign (via internet donations) in the final two weeks of the primary contact.<\/p>\n
There is a good argument to make that Stutzman is the candidate with the momentum now. The question is whether he can make up the gap in the last four-plus days of the campaign.<\/p>\n
The undecideds apparently could throw this race is any direction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
