| Description | Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu now leads challenger John Kennedy 53% to 43% in her bid for re-election, according to the latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state.
Though her lead has dropped slightly from last month, this marks the third straight poll to find Landrieu with a double-digit lead over her challenger. The latest numbers have been great news for Landrieu, who was once considered the most vulnerable Democratic incumbent this cycle.
The race remains tight among unaffiliated voters, with Landrieu leading 44% to 43%. While the incumbent leads 56% to 40% among women, her lead is smaller among men, 50% to 46%.
Rasmussen Markets data suggests that Landrieu has a 92.0% chance of winning re-election in November. These results are updated on a 24/7 basis by market participants. It costs nothing to join and add your voice to the collective wisdom.
Landrieu’s favorable ratings have slipped a bit from last month. The Senator is now viewed favorably by 56%, down from 61% in September, and unfavorably by 42%, up from 36%. Kennedy’s ratings are 46% favorable, 48% unfavorable. His reviews have also grown more negative this month. |
