I haven't seen Busby identify her party in ads which might give her an artificial boost in polls among folks who don't know her. We can't tell since the polling details aren't broken out. I still predict she won't win but against Bilbray she might.
Basically the media has always made this up as a Bilbray vs. Busby race and she's been more than happy with that depiction.
I'm content with my vote for Morrow.
Ya see the news about all the voters they can't validate using the new state database?

They are saying you can vote early too. Time to put this one in the rear view mirror and cut the crap on both sides. ;-)

Kaloogian was mentioned. Morrow's name didn't even appear; the author referenced a SurveyUSA poll in which Morrow had only 5% support, which is at most 5th place behind Busby(D) and top three Republicans (Roach 14%, Kaloogian 12%, Bilbray 10%). Other polls show quite different results, but no others were referenced, and perhaps none are accurate enough.
One of them is Eric Roach, who ... had 14 percent in the SurveyUSA poll, compared to 12 percent for former state Rep. Howard Kaloogian and 10 percent for Bilbray.
...
Bilbray, responding to attacks on his record, ... compared Bilbray favorably against Roach and Kaloogian, and told voters that his two opponents “do not deserve our support.”
