California Senate Race Tightens
There's good news and bad news for former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina in the latest poll on the California U.S. Senate race, CongressDaily reported Friday.
The bad news is that Fiorina still trails former Rep. Tom Campbell in their bid for the Republican Senate nomination. In a new Field Poll, Campbell had 28 percent, while Fiorina was at 22 percent followed by 9 percent for Assemblyman Chuck DeVore.
The good news for all three GOP candidates is that Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer's lead has shrunk since a similar poll in January. The poll showed Campbell with 44 percent to Boxer's 43 percent; while Boxer takes 45 percent to Fiorina's 44 percent. Boxer leads DeVore 45-41 percent. The three-term Democrat led all three GOP rivals by double digits in a similar poll conducted in January.
The survey of 748 likely voters was conducted March 9 through Monday and has a 3.7-point error margin. The subsample of 353 likely Republican primary voters has a 5.5-point error margin.
