election news continues to be good

"In Montana, Tester Pulls Away
In Montana's U.S. Senate race, a new Rasmussen Reports poll shows Jon Tester (D) now leads Sen. Conrad Burns (R-MT) by nine points, 52% to 43%. The two rivals were tied in last month's poll.

In Rhode Island, Whitehouse Opens Lead Over Chafee
In Rhode Island's U.S. Senate race, a new Rasmussen Reports poll finds Sheldon Whitehouse (D) leading Sen. Lincoln Chafee (R-RI) by eight points, 51% to 43%. Last month, Rasmussen had Whitehouse in a statistical dead heat.

In Illinois, Poll Suggests Blagojevich Landslide Coming
Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D) "is poised for an easy victory over Republican challenger Judy Baar Topinka in the November election -- possibly one of landslide proportions," according to a new Chicago Sun Times poll. Blagojevich leads 56% to 26%.

Key finding: Though voters are split on whether Blagojevich will reform state government, they overwhelmingly believe Topinka was close to former Gov. George Ryan (R) who was recently convicted on corruption charges.

Recent Chicago Tribune and Rasmussen Reports polls also show Blogojevich with comfortable leads."

In Ohio, Brown Pulls Ahead of DeWine
In Ohio's U.S. Senate race, a new Rasmussen Reports poll shows Rep. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) leading Sen. Mike DeWine (R-OH) by six points, 47% to 41%. Last month, a Rasmussen poll showed that Brown's lead was statistically insignificant.

In Minnesota, Klobuchar Keeps Wide Lead
In Minnesota's U.S. Senate race, a new Minneapolis Star-Tribune poll shows Amy Klobuchar (D) "continues to hold a dominant lead" over rival Mark Kennedy (R), 56% to 32%.

Key findings: "A sense by many that the nation is on the wrong track, mounting disapproval of President Bush and an energized DFL base all appear to be factors in the gap between Klobuchar and Kennedy. Klobuchar is ahead of Kennedy in virtually every demographic category that the poll measured and has extended a lead among moderates and independents over the summer."
