Washington Senate: Rossi Leads Murray in New Poll

With the “primary behind them, a new SurveyUSA poll in Washington shows Dino Rossi (R) leading Sen. Patty Murray (D) in the U.S. Senate general election match up, 52% to 45%,” Political Wire reports.

Said pollster Jay Leve: "The race may tighten, which is what we might expect, but I do think that we can say going in as this first poll shows, is that this is not a layup for re-election and that there’s a real fight here."
