| Description | January 13, 2006--The seesaw in Maryland's Senate race is echoed in the race for Governor. As in the Senate campaign, support for Democratic candidates bulged in November during a politically rough time for Republicans nationally, but has now slackened.
Republican Governor Bob Ehrlich—whose fiscal policies are credited by some with pulling the state out of the doldrums—currently leads Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley 47% to 40%.
That's the mirror-image of November, when Ehrlich trailed O'Malley 40% to 46% among likely voters.
The reversal of fortune is even more dramatic in the case of Montgomery County Executive Doug Duncan. Neck-and-neck with Ehrlich back in July, by November Duncan led 48% to 39%. Less than two months later, though, Ehrlich leads Duncan 50% to 41% among voters asked to choose between the two. |
