Casey/Santorum: Dead Heat

Posted by Tim Tagaris

A new poll released by Patriot News/WGAL-TV in Pennsylvania shows Bobby Casey Jr.'s lead over arch-Republican Rick Santorum is down to one percent. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first (or second?) public poll since the "official announcement" of Casey Jr.

March 22, 2005 (MoE +/- 4.2%)

Bobby Casey Jr. - 44%
Rick Santorum - 43%

February 16, 2005 (MoE +/- 2.8%)

Bobby Casey Jr. - 46%
Rick Santorum - 41%

These two results come after a DSCC poll released around January 13, 2005 that showed Casey with a 52% to 38% lead over Santorum.
