Pennsylvania Senate Democratic Primary: Specter 51%, Sestak 36%

Incumbent Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter remains barely over 50% but still holds a 15-point lead over his Democratic Primary challenger, Congressman Joe Sestak.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of likely Pennsylvania Democratic Primary voters finds Specter, fresh off a Democratic State Committee endorsement, leading Sestak 51% to 36%. Four percent (4%) favor some other candidate, and nine percent (9%) are undecided.

Last month, Specter jumped out to his biggest lead of the contest so far, running 21 points ahead of Sestak, 53% to 32%. In December, it was a 13-point race with Specter ahead 48% to 35%.

Specter’s support has ranged from 46% and 53% in the earlier polls. Incumbents who fall below 50% on a consistent basis are viewed as vulnerable, but this is the second month in a row where he’s crossed that critical line.

In the five previous Rasmussen Reports polls on the race, Sestak’s support has ranged from 32% to 42%. He was most competitive in October when the numbers showed Specter with 46% of the vote and Sestak at 42%.

Pennsylvania Democrats will pick their Senate nominee in a May 18 primary.

CRAP!! How did this happen? Specter is an old fool that needs to be slapped down. I despise this creep. He's rude and just plain ugly.

I am not surprised and he will win in Nov.  First of all I highly doubt that any other Democraat is going to win the State.  Casey won because people were sick of Santurium not paying attention to the State.  We are not a blue state.
I am glad too because I don't want Sestack in there. I don't care whom he backed in the Primary.  I know little or nothing about him.  I think Spector will be better for this state.  He is more then likely going to be the one who wins. I bet he takes Philly, Allegheny County, and a lot of the central part of the state.
