Thats a 17% gain in gap differential between him and Brown - all in one month.<br /><br />By the way, HOW in the world did you/PPP come up with numbers in this race that are so very much different than those that other pollsters are reporting?

No need to poll it now. I think it's much the same thing with the governor's race. I live in California and there's been so much negative advertising about the other person being a far left liberal. You'd think Jerry Brown must be the conservative in the race. If anyone knew he was running. Brown has had no profile so far. <br /><br />As a result I think you're wasting your time polling the general right now. Republicans will unite around the nominee. If there remains a big negative big government tax and spend mood Brown will get hurt. Being an old liberal politician in 2008 was great. This is an anti-Obama anti-incumbent environment and Brown has held office for most of the last 40 years.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11928675187803337574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-29452403648213425172010-05-27T18:18:28.553-05:002010-05-27T18:18:28.553-05:00Well finally a good poll for democratic side.
