Scott Brown Surges In New Hampshire
[BREITBART] The latest poll in the New Hampshire Senate race, released last week, shows Republican Scott Brown surging into a statistical tie with Dem Sen. Jeanne Shaheen. The WMUR Granite State Poll shows incumbent Shaheen leading Brown by two points, 46-44, within the polls margin of error. In July, Shaheen was leading Brown by 12 points. Shaheen, who is still fairly popular, is weighed down by Obama's continuing unpopularity. Just 37% of voters in New Hampshire approve of his job performance. Shaheen has also been dragged down by Brown's relentless campaigning against amnesty and the Obama Administration's disjointed response to the southern border crisis. For the last month, Brown has pounded Shaheen on the issue. Voters, it seems, can distinguish between the general support for the concept of "general amnesty" and concern about unsecured borders and blanket amnesty awarded by presidential fiat. At a time when an Ebola pandemic and heightened terrorist activity dominates the news, the issue of a secure national border becomes existential. Posted by: Fred 2014-08-25 |
