Research 2000 poll shows Christie still leading Corzine by 4 overall and 15 among Independents. I'll take that any day of the week.

Unfortunately, Corzlime has the dead vote locked up.

Another November heartbreak for Republicans in New Jersey?

Probably not enough to translate to a win for Christie. The gap has narrowed considerably in a couple of months.

Most importantly is the fact that this is a Daily Kos poll, Chris is still up 4, Corzine’s favorables are in the toilet, Chris’ favorables are holding up and most importantly Chris is winning with Independents by 15. Also, contrary to Quinnipiac’s claim that Daggett is attracting 12% of NJ voters, this poll shows the Libertarian candidate attracting only 7% of the vote.

WSJ says the reason for Christie's decline is not Corzine, it's because independent candidate Daggett is gaining. According to the WSJ, Christie is a RINO who will not address the high taxes in N.J. but Daggett is an aggressive tax cutter with specific proposals.

I disagree. Corzine’s negatives are way too high, this despite the millions he’s spent on tv/radio/print. Most importantly Corzine is losing Independents to Chris 47 - 32. You cannot win an election anywhere if you’re getting smoked with the Indie vote, and NJ has a lot of Indies.

I’m thinking that 4 points is not enough in NJ. The reason: they only poll LIVE PEOPLE. The actual voting patterns are completely different.

So how does this poll stack up with, say, Rasmussen?

No way, Corzine is despised by many NJ voters. For example Chris is attracting 13% of the Dem vote, 86% of the Repub vote and 52% of the Independent vote compared to Corzine attracting 80% of the Dem vote, 6% of the Repub vote and 33% of the Indie vote. Most importantly, 61% of NJ voters are Indpendents.

Good question, Ras’ 9/21 poll shows Chris beating Corzine by 7:

Christie is running an awful campaign. The Asbury Park Press has been running a front page story all week long about how New Jerseyans are fleeing the state because of taxes and the high cost of living. He’s being handed an issue on a silver platter and won’t run with it. He refuses to go on talk radio. I don’t know who is advising this guy but he’s blowing it big time.

Wasn’t Corzine down by double digits not too long ago?

I was expecting them to swap Codey for Corzine but it looks like Codey has his own problems hanging on to control of the state Senate.

He's using the Ray Bateman playbook (for those New Jerseyans who can remember that far back).

Thanks, I would say Rasmussen would be more accurate than a Daily Kos poll, which is what this one is.

Corzine is a scumbag who reflects the culture of corruption here in Sopranostan. After all these years of corrupt Dems-McGreevy Corzine James etc.. you would think people have had enough, but too many a-holes benefit from that corruption. All the people employed by the govt., Kushner industries , mob fronts benefit from corruption.
What really shocks me is the mammogram non-issue that Corzine is inventing. This after he closes so many hospitals.

One nonscientific survey I have noticed around suburban essex county is many homes with Christie signs and only one Corzine. My town is full of liberal SINGLE ISSUE pro-abortion JINO’s and this is the first election I have seen in the 15 years that I have lived here where there are more rep than dem home signs.
Has anyone else noticed this?

Christie has been on NJ 101.5 many times. He is on a first name basis with a few of the hosts and is participating in a debate coming up. Corzine was refusing to join in.
