NV-Sen: Things Look a Little Dicey for Reid
Swing State Project —
Research 2000 for Daily Kos (11/23-25, likely voters):

The survey, conducted November 23-25, has a four percent margin of error. Among the bad news for Reid, 54 percent of Nevadans said they disapproved of Reid's job performance, while 38 ...
