Sestak 47%(D) - Toomey(r) 44% !! Pennsylvania Senate race.
In a just released Garin-Hart-Young Poll, we've pulled ahead of Congressman Toomey … the early stages of our closing “Get-Out-The-Vote” (“GOTV”) Operation – “Bring It On Home” – are working.

In response to this latest poll, Pennsylvania's Patriot News put forth its headline, “Joe Sestak has taken lead over Pat Toomey”, while the Philadelphia Inquirer reported “Sestak has clawed his way” into the lead, and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette stated “Sestak catching the wind.”

And Hotline said it well:

“Sestak ... is finally closing in the race's final three weeks ...

The Sestak campaign and DSCC have carpet-bombed the state's airwaves since early September with millions of dollars in ads, and most of them, like a recent spot that criticized Toomey for outsourcing jobs, have focused on bringing moderate Democrats back into the fold.

In a state where Republicans have a million fewer registered voters, Democrats need only win over their party members to win the state.”

There are 1.2 million more Democrats than Republicans in our state … but we are focused not only on bringing Democrats “back into the fold,” but also Independents and moderate Republicans that are turned off by Congressman Toomey's extreme views and are accepting of our pragmatist approach to getting our country moving again.

2. Much more accurate than the Ras-bullshit poll...
Here in SE PA there are 10 Sestak signs for every Toomey sign.

8. Unfortunately, I think the Rasmussen poll is more correct...
Which is, I think Toomey is winning. With that said, it's not by as wide of margin. Probably very close - so Sestak still can pull it out.

9. it is prabably an internal poll
I hate that O'Donnell, who has no shot of winning, takes all the media attention right now while Toomey/Kirk/Rubio/Burr who are just as wacky can fly under radar.
