So, that means it's safe Corwin ... ?

Or is that Davis guy a strongly conservative Democrat ?

I wish PPP would poll there, or even Siena College ...

Finally, a poll. Too bad it's Siena.

Jane Corwin (R) - 36
Kathy Hochul (D) - 31
Jack Davis (I) - 23
Ian Murphy (G) - 1

Favorables:

Corwin - 44/31
Hochul - 44/31
Davis - 42/41
Murphy - 5/17

Obama - 39/57 (don't know why they polled this and not approval)
Pelosi - 25/67
Boehner - 45/34
Cuomo - 72/20 (!)

This is about what I expected to see for this race ...

Probably 3 reasons:

A) He was already a Democratic (I think) candidate for this seat in previous elections, which means big name recognition

B) He's running for the Tea Party, which means he's a good choice for protest voters, who are unhappy with recent handlings of Democrats and Republicans

C) He puts a lot of his own money into the race

Politico has the scoop on a new internal poll out from the Kathy Hochul campaign which shows the Erie County Democrat in a dead heat for a race in an open Congressional seat against Republican Jane Corwin.

According to the poll, by Global Strategy Group, Corwin has 31 percent of the vote while Hochul grabs 30 percent. Independent candidate Jack Davis has 26 percent.

The race is to replace Christopher Lee, who resigned when half-nude photos of himself that he used to solicit dates onlines surfaced. The district is heavily Republican leaning one, but the presence of Davis has given Democrats an opening.

The poll is an internal one, and so should be taken with a grain of salt but is not different from a Siena poll taken last week which showed Corwin with a five point lead over Hochul.

Apparently PPP will be releasing a poll today showing Hochul leading.

Says who ?

The numbers make sense.

This is a McCain+6 district, he won there 52-46.

This sample is 49-43 McCain, so it's about the 2008 electorate.

Interesting, but PPP needs a final poll there because Davis is rapidely imploding.

Interesting tidbit in the Siena poll. Jack Davis voters give President Obama a 34/66 favorability rating. If Davis collapses further, it seems unlikely that those voters would go to Hochul and would be more likely to go to Corwin.

On the other hand, Davis voters view Hochul much more favorable than Corwin (37-58 vs. 16-74).

Should we post results in a new thread ?

PS: Have polls already closed in NY-26 ?

I don't think a new thread is warranted.

The PPP poll with Hochul+6 seems to be on a good track too.

It seems they now are better with polling special elections.
