Candidate Watch : Matt Brown's numbers are right on track
I just wanted to give y'all a heads up about the Matt Brown campaign. I just got off the phone from a PR call announcing their internal polling results. Their numbers are looking good.
[via Matt Brown - Brown Gaining Momentum; Leads Whitehouse in New Poll]:
Brown is leading Whitehouse, even though Whitehouse has a 16 point advantage in name identification (Whitehouse 81%, Brown 65%).
"Matt has run an aggressive grassroots campaign since day one and people are responding - but we aren't taking anything for granted until the final poll on Election Day," said Pete Brodnitz, campaign pollster. "Whitehouse has the backing of the political machine, the endorsements and money. But Matt Brown has the people. This poll shows Matt has room to grow and the more voters know about him, the more they like him."
As I said before, Matt Brown looks like a good pro-choice candidate to support. I am keeping my eye on this race because I am hearing good things that I have not heard from other campaigns here in New York :
Politics | Pro-choice | Reproductive Rights | 2006 Elections | Candidate Watch | Democrats | Matt Brown | NARAL Pro-Choice | Rhode Island | Senate
