Local pollster Fairleigh Dickinson's first look at the 2012 Senate race finds Bob Menendez leading his little-known Republican potential rivals by double digits, ranging from margins of 10 (against his 2006 opponent, Tom Kean Jr., and also against state Sen. Michael Doherty, who's apparently a particular fave to the tea party types) to 19 (against current Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno, who may be at a low point right now since most people's current impression of her involves her being out-of-state during the nor'easter cleanup). FDU doesn't offer an approval rating for Menendez for some reason, but he's polling not out of the danger zone, in the mid-40s and, as they point out, his fortunes are probably deeply tied to those of Barack Obama (who's at 47/41) and those of the broader economy.
Public Policy Polling (1/6-9, New Jersey voters, no trendlines):
Bob Menendez (D-inc): 41
Tom Kean Jr. (R): 39
Undecided: 19
Bob Menendez (D-inc): 47
Lou Dobbs (R): 35
Undecided: 18
Bob Menendez (D-inc): 45
Kim Guadgano (R): 30
Undecided: 24
(MoE: ±4.3%)
FDU's numbers contrast a bit with those from PPP, who find a much closer race between Menendez and Kean (although they find a similar blowout against Guadagno as with FDU)." |
