Poll: Elizabeth Warren Takes One-Point Lead Over Scott Brown

Poll: Elizabeth Warren Takes One-Point Lead Over Scott Brown

The new Rasmussen poll of the Massachusetts Senate race shows likely Democratic nominee Elizabeth Warren grabbing a narrow edge over incumbent Republican Sen. Scott Brown.

The numbers: Warren 46%, Brown 45%. The survey of likely voters was conducted on April 9, and has a ±4.5% margin of error.

In the previous Rasmussen survey of this race from late February, Brown led by 49%-44%, at a time when he had generally taken a lead according to several pollsters.

Mostly working-class type of guys. Elizabeth Warren has got to reach out more to them and let them know how GOP policies will screw them. And she has to do it in a more layman type of way. Speaking to them in a Professorial way ain't gonna work.
