Coons Crushing O’Donnell In New Delaware Senate Poll

No direct link yet, but MSNBC’s First Read reports on the results of a new poll in Delaware that seems to indicate that this race is probably over:

Yet another poll shows Chris Coons with a commanding lead over Christine O’Donnell… Coons leads 49%-30% in a new University of Delaware Center for Political Communication poll. With leaners, Coons’ lead expands to 61%-37%.

Yea I think this is a “Safe Democrat” seat now.

Update: Here’s a link to the University of Delaware poll. There was also a Fairleigh Dickenson University Poll released today that shows Coons up 17 points among Likely Voters.

    This is all the fault of the liberal lamestream media for accurately reporting about her.

    No, it is the fault of the lying bias media for not reporting about him. The issue is not what she believed as a teenager, or he as a college student. It is how they will vote in the Senate. She believes in smaller government and he has a 5 year plan like Stalin.

  3. If the Delaware GOP had nominated a qualified candidate for Senate, and no I don’t necessarily mean Mike Castle, I would bet you this would be a single digit race

    Mataconis, someone should bitch slap you for quoting MSNBC.

    Or last year, or last week, or today. Leave Christine alone!

    She believes in smaller government and he has a 5 year plan like Stalin.

    Define exactly how Chris Coons has proposed anything like what Stalin did.

    Mataconis, someone should bitch slap you for quoting MSNBC.

    Indeed, by linking to MSNBC’s reporting of a poll result, you are most certainly deserving of a physical assault.

    Looks like the Marxist is going to win…what a shame…

    All industry in Delaware will be collectivized in a few months. There will be gulags shortly thereafter. The Pledge of Allegiance will be replaced with The thoughts of Chairman Mao. The lies of the lamestream media will keep the truth of what is happening from the American people.

    It is interesting that with all the close “game changing” political races going on the media seems to be obsessed with the one where the Republican is down by 16 points. This Delaware race is the lead store still on many networks. Wonder why?

    Because one of the candidates is a crazy person.
