Description | Republican Bobby Jindal pulled seven points ahead of Democrat Kathleen Blanco in the latest Verne Kennedy tracking poll.
Kennedy said Jindal was at 49 percent and Blanco at 42 percent in a rolling sample of 600 taken through Wednesday night. The poll’s margin of error is 4 percentage points.
“The trend is, she is declining, and he is picking up slightly, but this could change tomorrow,” Kennedy said.
“People are beginning to focus on the race,” said LSU political scientist Wayne Parent. “Now is when we begin to take these trends seriously. For her to win, she has to turn it around, which she can, but it’s her challenge.”
