Colorado's U.S. Senate race has clenched into a dead heat nine days before polls close, as incumbent Democrat Michael Bennet climbed to meet GOP hopeful Ken Buck's early lead, each man garnering 47 percent support among likely and actual voters, according to a Denver Post/9 News poll.

Don’t believe the polls. These are media polls to create a win for their candidates and there is no way to measure an electorate like this one.
Pray for the Election
Buck was an idiot for the Meet the Press debate. Bennet is a weak opponent. We should have nomintated Jane Norton. She would have the election locked by now.
No offense intended but I do not believe the poll. I am not saying Buck could not lose, I am just saying I do not believe the poll.
If Buck loses it will not mean the poll was correct, it will just mean the poll helped influence the race.
Sorry this is just my personal opinion of polling. I predicted that this would happen, libs just make up polls, so really the science of polling is dead in a partisan liberal media.
All polls are done by partisans, there are no robots.
Polling still holds science when the question is not political, but that`s where it ends IMHO that is.
Scott Brown (R-Mass) was 9 points down when he snatched the seat Kennedys held for 50 years.
Looked like Obama’s last minute fly-in to aid Coakley did the trick for Brown (/snix).
TEA minus 9 days and counting.
That same polling outfit also has Hickenlooper leading Tancredo by 10 points after 2 other recent polls had the race a statistical dead heat. I’d be interested to see the internals as this doesn’t smell quite right.
WTH is wrong with Colorado?
Obanzi and his Ponzinomic policy will destroy Colorado anyway.
automated telephone poll of 621 likely and actual voters
Buck was on Mark Levin Thursday night and he said he had a small lead.
its called propaganda and its a compost specialty !!!
the chicken littles here are pathetic.
How do we know that Buck is trailing in early voting?
I’m sorry - I see what you are referring to towards the end of the article.
Immigration, Political Realignment, and the Demise of Republican Political Prospects
he is quoting some far left website that left winger journOlist karen tumulty was spreading yesterday at the wash compost.
pure lies and bs.
For some reason, the channel on which I watch the Sunday NFL Game of the Week comes out of Colorado, and all I see are anti-Buck commercials. Have never seen one pro-Buck or anti-Bennett commercial. No wonder Buck is losing his lead. Stealth campaigns rarely do well.
According to the article, the poll was done by SurveyUSA but I couldn’t find anything about it on Survey’s website. In a poll SurveyUSA did for the Delaware senate race a couple weeks back, they adjusted voter turnout by 8% in favor of Republicans (presumably to account for the enthusiasm gap). Unfortunately, instead of deducting those extra points from Democrat turnout (which is what will actually happen), they deducted them from the Indy turnout. Basically they are playing with numbers to get the results their clients want to show.
so some troll is posting old cooked polls and spreading early voting lies here . the usual election postings games being played by the left here.
“Don’t believe the polls.”
Me neither.
This is the left wing pollsters and MSM trying to help the Dems energize their base. It will keep the campaign contributions flowing and also sort of mask any voter fraud that the Dems pull off on Nov 2nd to get their candidate over the finish line by a couple of points. They will point to the race having tightened and and been a toss-up and their candidate won a squeeker.
