This Just In from Channel 3’s Kristin Kelly (@KK_WCAX) onTwitter:
New @wcax poll of primary voters #vt AG: Sorrell 49% Donovan 23% Not Sure 25% – @wcax_kristinc has more result coming up at 6.
So, if TJ is to upend Bill Sorrell, he has a fair bit of ground to make up. Of course, you could look at it the other way: a 15-year incumbent can’t even muster 50% support in a primary poll. That’s pretty darn sad.
Still, if this poll is accurate, TJ will either have to convince some Sorrell voters to switch sides, or he’ll have to completely sweep the undecideds.
Remember, this is very much a “turn out” election — in August! It is not that I have any idea who will win, I just think that polls will be less reliable than usual and good old fashion GOTV and shoe leather will win the day.
