... a 15-point lead compared to a 27-point lead in the group's June survey.
The poll comes on the heels of a poll released this week by Public Policy Polling, contracted by Weiland's campaign, that found 40 percent of registered voters would vote for Rounds, 34 percent for Weiland and 11 percent for Libertarian Kurt Evans.
The survey was conducted Oct. 2-6 and interviewed about 800 likely voters in South Dakota (total respondents varied by question).
