From the LVRJ: One week from Election Day, a new poll shows Republican Danny
Tarkanian leading Democrat Steven Horsford 47 percent to 42 percent in
the race for Congressional District 4 despite voter registration
statistics suggesting the seat should be a shoo-in for Democrats.
It's a slight shift in Tarkanian's favor since a similar survey in
September showed Tarkanian edging Horsford 45 percent to 42 percent,
close enough to fall within the margin of error.
The new survey, which included likely voters as well as some
respondents who had already voted, shows Tarkanian clinging to the lead
despite a Democratic registration advantage among active voters of more
than 40,000 . The Review-Journal and KLAS-TV commissioned the poll by
SurveyUSA.
Pollsters received responses from 648 people, some of whom had
already voted and others deemed "likely voters" according to SurveyUSA.
The partisan breakdown was 42 percent Democrats, 32 percent Republicans
and 26 percent independent. The margin of error was plus or minus 3.9
percentage points in the poll, which was taken Oct. 26-28. http://www.lvrj.com/news/tarkanian-adds-to-lead-against-democratic-foe-176383691.html
Funny that the liberal political reporter for the LVRJ is just shocked that Tarkanian has a bigger lead.
Ann Coulter pointed out last week that liberal white voters just don't vote for blacks, even if they are Democrats, if it comes down to a black and white candidate. I guess we may be seeing this in this swing District.

The shocking thing is that Tarkanian might actually win an election. How many tries is this for him?
