(KYW)-(Trenton)-The latest exclusive Eyewitness News Survey USA Poll of the New Jersey senate race shows a real deadlock between incumbent Senator Robert Torricelli and Republican challenger Douglas Forrester.
The poll shows each candidate with 43 percent of the vote, with the rest undecided or planning to vote for other candidates. The margin of error in this poll was plus or minus 3.9 percent.
Eyewitness News Anchor Larry Kane says the survey of 661 likely voters is an early indication of what could be a very close and expensive race. But Kane says Torricelli, hurt by an ethics investigation, is still the incumbent and will have a large war chest for November. Remember, the Democrats hold a slim majority in the U.S. Senate, and a loss of one or two seats can change that in a flash.
Kane says Forrester's challenge is to match master-fundraiser Torricelli dollar-for-dollar.

Any time an incumbent is polling at less than 50%, that's bad news for them (except for Clinton, who was able to triangulate between Perot and the two corpses the Pubbies ran at him. Unfortunately, you are correct, though. That's why political ads are so stupid. (Deep voice, "do you realize that Stanley Snootman barbecues children and eats them for breakfast? It's true, on BBBB Radio, Snootman said, "I love to have a barbecue in the the back yard with all the neighbors and their kids." Do we need a cannibalistic pedophile in the United States Senate?)(this ad was not intended to offend NAMBLA, Friends of Jeffrey Dahmer, or any of the other fine organizations that contribute to the Democratic Party.)
Don't you live in Costa Rica?
Yep...the Torch is a Mafia/Union stooge and his retention of a Senate seat embarrasses even the Senate's low standards. We'll see if the folks from NooJoisey are embarrassed enuff to do something about it, I reckon...MUD
Imus doesn't do much for me. Giuliani's endorsement in NJ, however, is huge (IMHO). A lot of Jersey folks were intimately touched by 9/11 and Rudy's influence.
