* I just noticed that Public Policy Polling is asking its readers to vote on which state the firm should poll next. Illinois is currently trailing badly. We only have until the end of Tuesday to move ourselves up in the rankings, so please head there as soon as you can and vote! [Also, click here for some how-to hints.]
PPP has had some pretty reliable numbers, but I’d like to see if they detect any further tightening in this race. Their last poll had Gov. Pat Quinn trailing Sen. Bill Brady by seven points, the highest margin of any legit poll out there. Brady had this to say earlier today…
Most polls showed Brady with a slim to moderate lead over Gov. Pat Quinn. Recently, some polls suggested the race may be tightening. Not so, Brady said.
“We don’t think they’re tightening, we think our momentum is continuing,” Brady said during a stop Friday morning at Granny’s Kitchen in Harrisburg
Brady also used the latest Rasmussen poll to buttress his case, but as I’ve told you several times before, Rasmussen isn’t polling all the names on the ballot. When Scott Lee Cohen is included in a poll, the margin definitely appears to shift in Quinn’s favor. So, using that poll as evidence is just bogus.
