DescriptionChris Kennedy. A poll shows that 53.4 percent of likely voters asked have never heard of him. Respondents were also asked if they would be more or less likely to vote for Kennedy if they were aware of his bloodlines. That basically came out as a wash.

The poll was likely done by Mark Kirk, seeing as how he was tested in one-on-one races against Alexi Giannoulias as well as Kennedy, both of which came up dead-even. Releasing the data may have been done as a message to Kennedy that he would have to dig deep into his deep pockets to make himself known to the voters of Illinois.
