The last public poll had Jones at 24%. Between 57-73% of Republican voters said they were still UNDECIDED in these polls.
This race is up for grabs.
And Kaloogian will win if his message gets out enough in TV and radio ads because the voters of the Republican party agree with Kaloogian on the issues.
It's just a question of will Kaloogian have a wide enough reach with enough frequency in his campaign advertising.
This race is up for grabs...From Dan Weintraub (Sacramento Bee, 2/20/04):
Marin showing life in Senate race
The Public Policy Institute of California Poll on the Republican U.S. Senate primary showed former US Treasurer Rosario Marin breaking through as the leading challenger to the establishment favorite, former Secretary of State Bill Jones.
Jones is still leading, but has only 24 percent of the support, with Marin in second at 12 percent.
Former Assemblyman Howard Kaloogian was at 5 percent with former Los Altos Hills mayor Toni Casey bringing up the rear at 2 percent.Posted by dweintraub at 05:59 AM
