Nevada Senate: Angle 48%, Reid 41%
Rasmussen Reports ^ | June 24, 2010

Posted on 06/24/2010 5:53:52 PM PDT by Clintonfatigued

Sharron Angle’s modest bounce after her Republican Primary win appears to be over, but she still holds a slight lead over Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in Nevada’s U.S. Senate race.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in Nevada shows Angle earning 48% support, while Reid, the state’s longtime Democratic senator, picks up 41% of the vote. Eight percent (8%) like some other candidate in the race, while just two percent (2%) are undecided.

Some of Angle’s post-primary bounce has subsided, but she still leads Reid.

Please fire back against Reid. With his unpopularity it would be a crime if his lie strategy works.

The Rinos are migrating back to their homeland.

By all means. Encourage everyone you know to vote for Reid.

Most of the bouce loss is due to a new set of TV ads that are running from the Ried campaign. Naturally it does not pass the Paul Harvey test. I found out about this today from my mother who lives in Vegas and is fed nothing but the typical union crap where she works (she is 78 and refuses to retire because it is boring), combined with the MSM. We discussed this and other key issues she had no idea were happening.

7 points is a “slight” lead?

Yes, and 0bama's 6-pt win against McCain was a "landslide."

This is good news. Not a slam dunk, but if the Senate Majority Leader is getting under 50% in his own state, it is doable. I wouldnt feel comfortable until Sharron is resting on the 50-51% line, but I feel pretty good about this.

I’m now feeling better about this race than the North Carolina one.

It’s not a good time to be a crooked and filthy rich politician in Nevada these days when the unemployment and forclosure rates are so high. The mafia unionists aren’t going to be able to dig Benedict Harry out of this one no matter how much pension money they shovel his way.

I’ve heard Reid has a campaign chest with $25+ million in it, and his son, who has done nothing his entire life has a campaign chest of over $4 million in his first political run for any office. The suffering people of Nevada look at that crap and they do not feel kindly.

I predict a 20 percent difference at the polls.

Reid has never gotten above the low 40’s. Angle wins unless some RINO type decides she is too conservative and makes an independent run.

even with all of his money and attacks, Reid still can’t get out of the very low 40’s.

I think there are a few races that were thought to be in the Win column that are not going to be as easy as thought. Rove’s map moved NC and IL to toss up from lean GOP. A weak RNC may prove to be our undoing in November.

7 is a decent lead. Also important is Reid’s distance from 50%.
