Harry Reid leads Sue Lowden in latest poll numbers

The polling firm Fairbanks, Maslin, Maullin and Metz, have just released the following numbers for the U.S. Senate Race
  • Harry Reid 42% (D)
  • Sue Lowden 35% (R)
  • Scott Ashjian 3% (T)
  • Tim Fasano 5% (IAP)
  • None of these 8%
  • Undecided 8%
The polling firm also polled with Tarkanian in place of Lowden:
  • Harry Reid 37% (D)
  • Danny Tarkanian 37% (R)
  • Scott Ashjian 2% (T)
  • Tim Fasano 7% (IAP)
  • None of these 4%
  • Undecided 11%
It would seem that Sue Lowden’s Chickens for Health Care plan is having an effect on her numbers

But it's such a sensible plan. I don't understand.

As much as I would like to believe it, the pollster isn't well known and doesn't have much of a record to go on, I also think in general its good to look at a few polls and not just one. I could see this being a possibility as Obama's numbers have generally improved over the last few weeks and the whole chicken fiasco made Lowden look quite silly, but we do need to see a few more polls before we can really speculate if this poll has any real substance or not.

The client list of U.S. senators/representatives at a glance appears to be all democrats.

and add to this, when you throw several names out it is pretty hard to get an accurate count, especially from a polling center with little credibility.

Usually, when the mods delete a post for personal attacks, namecalling, off topic, etc, most times they will also delete those posts that responded to the offending post.

I see. Gee, I was trying to help scold someone for name calling so I guess that was off topic. Thank you, appreciate you explaining this to me.
