Miller leads in Alaska

Joe Miller is favored heading into the final two days of the US Senate campaign in Alaska. 37% of voters say they'll pick him while 30% plan to vote for Scott McAdams and another 30% plan to write in Lisa Murkowski. Miller is winning despite having the worst personal favorability numbers of the three candidates. Only 36% have a positive opinion of him while 59% view him in a negative light. McAdams is by far the most popular with 50% rating him favorably to only 30% with an unfavorable one. Voters aren't very enamored with Murkowski either, giving her a 37/53 approval rating.

How can McAdams be so much more popular than Miller yet still be trailing the race? It's because 92% of the small group of voters that does like Miller is planning to vote for him. But only 56% of the voters with a positive opinion of McAdams are intending to cast their ballots for him, while 31% of them are going for Lisa Murkowski.

The high number of voters who like McAdams, dislike Miller, and are voting for Murkowski place the race in a whole different light than has been thought of the last few months. Murkowski's campaign, rather than propping herself up at the expense of Miller, may actually end up propping Miller up at the expense of McAdams. You never know how things would have unfolded in a two way race but Murkowski seems to be taking a lot more voters away from McAdams than she is from Miller.

alaska pollsters are notoriously corrupt. Palin was down by 20% yet still won AK Gov

Duh. He never was behind. The polls in the last couple of weeks showing a dem surge have ALL been garbage. Push is coming to shove and they are now having to actually tell some semblance of the truth. Murk will crash and there will be much joy and schadenfreude, but not as much as when Odonnell spanks that pet monkey Coons.

I'll probably get flamed for this, but psychological studies, lots of them, repeatedly demonstrate that people don't trust a man with a beard.

They may see him in many favorable ways but when it comes to trusting him, the answer is NO!

Miller should have run as a clean shaven candidate. Then after being elected, grow the beard.

He may even have been advised to shave it but ignored the advice. Not a good sign.

Yep, there is going to be a slew of “corrections” on the last minute poll data, so the propagandist can say that the final polling was accurate.

It’s disgusting.

The fine print:

PPP surveyed 1,539 likely Alaska voters on October 30th and 31st. The margin of error for the survey is +/- 2.5%.

Nice, very nice poll. 7% is almost 3 times the MOE..

I understand that is one reason Charlie Crist is losing his race.
