Research 2000: Chambliss Leads By Six in Georgia
Taegan Goddard's Political Wire —
The latest Research 2000 poll in the Georgia U.S. Senate run off shows Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) with a six point lead over Jim Martin (D), 52% to 46%. Key finding: "Research 2000 is speculating that the likely-voter model for the runoff
election will be substantially different from the turnout model for the
November election...if poll respondents mirrored those who voted on Election Day, the race
would be a lot closer. However, the pollster is figuring that a lot of
voters -- African-Americans in particular -- who voted for Obama in the
general election will stay at home for the runoff."
