Brady leads in Idaho for governor
A short two years from not even fielding a candidate against a sitting Republican Senator, things sure have turned around for Democrats in Idaho. Their man in in the lead (or pretty damn close):
In one of the most Republican states in the country, a new poll released yesterday shows that Democrat candidate Jerry Brady has closed a 19-point gap and now is within the margin of error against his Republican opponent, U.S. Rep. C.L. "Butch" Otter, in the race for Idaho Governor. The poll conducted by Goodwin Simon Victoria Research shows Jerry Brady with a 42-40 lead over Congressman Otter among likely voters."This poll clearly indicates that Jerry Brady's 'Idaho Is Not for Sale' message is resonating with the voting public," DGA Chair New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson said. "Protecting public lands is an important issue to Idaho voters, and they know Jerry Brady shares their values and is on their side."
No matter which way you sliced it, this is way better than a 99 percet loss in a statewide race.
