Fallin (R)- 50%
Dorman (D)- 36%

44% have no opinion of Dorman; higher than I'd expect.

Why so much Oklahoma hate on here?

A Dorman internal has this within 2 points. SoonerPoll is pretty weak in terms of results, so this is probably in between the two.

That's like asking "why so much California hate on here?" on Free Republic. :P

Its just out of nowhere though. Kind of ridiculous how much focus this one state gets for, what? Being conservative?

Bushie is the main reason.  The Update makes Oklahoma look bad.....

I like Oklahoma and see it as a God-fearing, patriotic state, but it has its dark spots with education, obesity, etc.

Dorman has the democrats and democrat-leaning independents locked up, now he needs to convince republican-leaning independents and liberal republicans that Fallin is too conservative even for OK.

Personally, I see this race ending up like the 2004 senate race (11 point republican win). Fallin's lost a bunch of her 2010 popularity, when she beat a credible opponent 60-40, but she hasn't made enough HUGE mistakes to actually lose.

I'm predicting a 54-44 win for Fallin when all is said and done.

Political polls aren't the only kind of pole Mary Fallin is on top of.

I like how the headline in the link that Miles posted says:

"EXCLUSIVE: Poll Shows Tight Race For Next Oklahoma Governor"

And the poll results have Fallin+14 ... :P

"Liberal Oklahoma Republicans"?

I agree Dorman is poised to make inroads among all several dozen of them, but....
