AZ Daily Star - Latest poll has Pederson
within margin of error of Kyl
By Josh Brodesky – 11.2.06
With the election less than a week away,
Democrat Jim Pederson continues to close on
Republican Sen. Jon Kyl, pulling within 4.5 points,
according to a poll released Thursday.
A survey of 400 likely voters from across the
state showed Pederson trailing Kyl 45.8 percent to
41.3 percent with nine percent of voters still
undecided. Libertarian Richard Mack received 3.7
percent.
The difference is within the poll's 4.9 point margin
of error. The survey by Zimmerman and Associates
and Marketing Intelligence was conducted from Oct.
25 -30.
Over the last few months most polls have shown
Pederson steadily closing the gap with Kyl. A recent
ASU poll placed Pederson within six points.
The poll produces some interesting breakdowns in
where each candidate's strengths are.
Pederson scored highest with women, at roughly
48 percent to 42 percent. Kyl was preferred by men
48 percent to 35 percent.
Kyl is strongest in Maricopa County, while
Pederson holds about a one point edge in Pima
County and three points around the rest of the state.
Pederson was more popular with voters in the 44
and younger age groups, while Kyl scored higher with
those 45 and above.
