Via Talking Points Memo, the latest Survey USA poll in Missouri gives Claire McCaskill the lead: 50 - 44. This race has been so close for so long. Looks like it could be breaking for Claire at the right time.
Political Wire has the latest Survey USA polls from Maryland which show the Dems. holding on to their leads. O'Malley is up 50% - 47%; Cardin leads Steele 49% - 46%.
Also, I got an e-mail from Maine with latest private polling in the Governor's race. The poll was conducted by Tom Kiley, who has over 20 years of experience polling in Maine. I always feel more comfortable with polls conducted by experts who really know a given state:
On the governor's race, we also have positive news: Baldacci (D) 41, Woodcock (R) 24, Merrill (I) 14, and LaMarche (G) 12. The two female candidates are certainly holding up their end, and Woodcock's unfavorables rating is at 51%!! Even if Woodcock gets all of the undecided vote, and he'll probably get most of it(conservative, non-Democrats), the Governor looks like he can hold on here.That one hasn't been easy in Maine, but it's personal. John Baldacci was a real trooper last year when the theocrats tried unsuccessfully to overturn the law that added sexual orientation to Maine's anti-discrimination law. He got a lot of grief, but never backed down.
