| Description | Democratic Senate challenger Jon Tester appears to hold a slight lead over Republican Sen. Conrad Burns in a new poll of likely voters released Monday. The poll drew an unusually sharp reaction from the Burns campaign.
A Burns spokesman dismissed the USA Today/Gallup poll as inaccurate and initially said the campaign was revoking one newspaper's credentials to attend Burns' election night event in Billings because it wrote about the poll.
Jason Klindt first said Monday that the Great Falls Tribune would not be allowed to attend, before changing his mind later in the day.
"Running a bogus poll on the day before an election to try and suppress Republican voter turnout is irresponsible and in poor taste," Klindt said Monday. |
