Stockton Poll (http://intraweb.stockton.edu/eyos/hughescenter/content/docs/Polling/2014%20Polling/StocktonPollSenateRaceTightens2014PressRelease.pdf)
Booker 48%
Bell 39%
Undecided 12%

October 5-8; 810 LV; MoE +/-3.5 points

Booker is down net 4 points from Stockton's September 10 poll.

Obama's New Jersey favorables are at 44-53 and his job approval rating is 38-61.  Christie is slightly underwater in job approval (49-51), but has positive favorables (56-41).

Somebody needs to add Stockton's September poll to the database.  I don't have access to add polls.  The link to it is here (http://intraweb.stockton.edu/eyos/hughescenter/content/docs/Polling/2014%20Polling/StocktonPollSenateRace2014PressRelease.pdf).  That poll was:

Booker 49%
Bell 36%
Undecided 12%
Other/Decline to Answer 3%

It was taken September 5-8, of 806 LV with a MoE of +/-3.5 points.

Added.

Joke poll.

Nonsense.  It's totally in line with other New Jersey polls, which show Booker ahead by 11-15.  And 10-15 points is likely to be Booker's winning margin, if past New Jersey Senate races are any indication.  9 points isn't far from that.

Booker's weak margins against joke candidates like Lonegan and Bell is pretty embarrassing for him.

Joke poll because Obama's approval rating isn't 39% in NJ. Throw the poll in the trash.

Eh, it's New Jersey, with few exceptions, it's been low double digit margins in Senate races.
