Margins of 19 percentage points or more among women, and smaller margins among independent voters keep Colorado's Democratic governor, John Hickenlooper, ahead of possible Republican challengers, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

Voters approve 52 - 39 percent of the job Gov. Hickenlooper is doing and say 47 - 43 percent that he deserves reelection, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds.

Hickenlooper's leads over possible Republican contenders are:

    47 - 40 percent, over former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo. Men back Tancredo 47 - 42 percent while women go to Hickenlooper 53 - 34 percent. Independent voters go Democratic 44 - 39 percent.
    48 - 38 percent over Secretary of State Scott Gessler. Men back Gessler by a slim 44 - 41 percent margin while women back Hickenlooper 55 - 32 percent. Independent voters go Democratic 43 - 36 percent.
    48 - 39 percent over former U.S. Rep. Bob Beauprez, with men to Beauprez 46 - 41 percent and women for Hickenlooper 55 - 33 percent. Independent voters go Democratic 45 - 36 percent.
    47 - 38 percent over former State Sen. Mike Kopp, with men for Kopp 44 - 40 percent and women for Hickenlooper 54 - 32 percent. Independent voters go Democratic 44 - 36 percent.

"Strong support from women and an edge among independent voters give Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper a solid foothold in his reelection effort," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University poll.

Isn't it weird that the Candidate with the closest polling to J. Dawg is the most insane?

Hick will win, he's recovered and his opponents are lousy or worse.

Sure. But if they nominate Tancredo, I'm sure it would help minorities turnout, so it would help Udall!

Hickenlooper will need to maintain the 53 percent he got in 2010.

Hickenlooper would indeed be a guaranteed loser if he was running in an off-year special election that only 10% of Colorado showed up for.
