Poll: Blumenthal ahead in Conn. Senate race

HAMDEN, Conn. -- A new Quinnipiac University Poll shows Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal holding a hefty lead over his three Republican rivals for the U.S. Senate.

The survey of 1,430 registered voters released Thursday shows Blumenthal, a Democrat, leading former Congressman Rob Simmons 62 percent to 27 percent, former World Wrestling Entertainment CEO Linda McMahon 64 percent to 23 percent and Fairfield County money manager Peter Schiff, 66 percent to 19 percent.

They're running for the seat held by Democrat Christopher Dodd, who is not seeking re-election. Blumenthal's poll numbers suggest Democrats have a renewed chance of retaining Dodd's seat in their effort to keep 60 seats in the Senate.

The poll's margin of sampling error was plus or minus 2.6 percentage points.
