Rasmussen: GOP Sen. Dole In Dead Heat Against Democratic Nominee
A new poll finds yet another incumbent Republican Senator facing a tough race, a further indication that the Senate GOP is going up against a rough current this year.
The Rasmussen poll of North Carolina finds Sen. Elizabeth Dole in a dead heat with her Dem challenger, state Sen. Kay Hagan, who just won her primary on Tuesday.
Hagan (D) 48%
Dole (R) 47%Sample size: 500 likely voters.
Margin of error: ±4%
From the pollster's analysis: "Any incumbent who polls below 50% early in the campaign cycle is considered potentially vulnerable. Dole is far from the only Republican incumbent in that position this year."
