The poll of 400 likely voters, conducted Saturday and Sunday, has a margin of error of plus-or-minus 4.9 percentage points.

Critz beat Burns by 7.6 percentage points in the May special election to fill the unexpired term of the late John Murtha.

Has a rematch of special election candidates in a general election ever ended up with the first-time loser winning the second round?

Almost never.

This is not a true rematch though. Now if it was another three-way race it'd be comparable.

I still say Burns has a good shot. The high number of undecideds is good for him if the poll is indeed true.

No one's going to concede on whether Djou is a solid incumbent or not until Election Day.
