Sodrel-Hill IN9 Rubber Match Too Close To Call:
In an election today, 10/9/06, in Indiana's 9th Congressional District, Democrat challenger Baron Hill and Republican incumbent Mike Sodrel are neck-and-neck, according to a SurveyUSA poll conducted exclusively for WHAS-TV Louisville.
29 days to the 11/7/06 election, it's Hill 48%, Sodrel 46%. Hill was elected to represent Indiana's 9th District in 1998, 2000, and 2002. Sodrel, who had lost to Hill 51-46 in 2002, captured the seat for the Republicans in 2004, defeating Hill by half a point.
512 Likely Voters; MOE +/- 4.4 percent
Sodrel down 2 in new Survey USA poll
Excellent news. Sodrel is catching up, and may have a chance to win this thing. If he does, it will be very difficult for the Democrats to win the House.
This one is the key of the so-called "Indiana three." I forsee Chocola hanging on and Hostettler losing. This one could go either way.
