Though I'm assuming this was an online poll, they didn't disclose the survey size or MoE. I just entered in 500 LV with 4.5% (pretty universal for Rasmussen polls)...I'll go in and edit that if they release more information.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Voters in the Hoosier State finds Mourdock earning 42% of the vote, while Donnelly draws support from 40%. 

Okay so is Rassy's title wrong or is the text incorrect?

This is what its showing:

I just looked at the headline first, where it showed them each at 42%.

They did that yesterday with the NC poll. They showed Romney up 46-44 but had him actually up 49-44 in their full report.

Poll edited. (https://uselectionatlas.org/POLLS/SENATE/2012/polls.php?action=indpoll&id=18100201281016)

Yeah!  How dare Indiana decide that not being bothered by robocalls is more important than feeding our polling data obsessions!

Rasmussen has been putting out a number of polls as of late that are to the left or centered on the polling average. I wonder what the heck people are complaining about.

Personally, I feel this race needs another opinion.
