Zogby AR-SEN: Lincoln In Deep Trouble

Zogby Arkansas Poll conducted 11/16-11/17 of 501 LVs:

Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D) 41%
State Senate Minority Leader Gilbert Baker (R) 39%

Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D) 45%
State Sen. Kim Hendren (R) 29%

Lincoln probably sealed her fate last night by voting for cloture in the healthcare debate, as 63% oppose the healthcare bill. 48% of Arkansas voters say they would be less likely to vote for her if they knew that she supported the bill. The poll was commissioned by a group that opposes the healthcare bill, and clearly they were trying to put pressure on her to vote against it. Lincoln does trail by large margins after "loaded" questions about the healthcare bill are introduced.

SLIGHT ADVANTAGE FOR LINCOLN.
