Menendez probably has a big lead in Camden and Newark as well. He is on a roll!

I thought at first this was a misprint and it was supposed to be Menendez 52, Kean 46.   But if Menendez only has 52% of the vote in Hudson Co., that isn't too good, even assuming the undecideds stay Democratic (he already represents most of the county; they should know who he is!)

I'll go out on a limb and predict that Kean carries Hunterdon and Sussex Counties by large margins.  Maybe he'll get an extra vote in Saddle River from Richard Nixon's ghost.

To bad their is more to NJ than Hudson.

The swing to Nixon in Hudson in '72 was extremely strong IIRC.

FWIW: Lautenberg got 73% here in 2002.

A 1 county poll? Weird, there aren't many of those.

80% says he still stands a chance, a really strong Democratic candidate could pull 90%+

No actually. Surprisingly enough there are republicans in Hudson. Also,  that is above normal.  He only one his congressional district with 70+ too.
