Rasmussen Reports: Four of Arkansas Senator Blanche Lincoln’s Republican opponents now earn more than 50% of the vote as her path to reelection grows even steeper. The numbers are closer when Lieutenant Governor Bill Halter is the Democrat in the race, but only because there are more undecided voters with respect to Halter. Votes Earned:
Former State Senator Jim Holt 51% - Lincoln 35%
Congressman John Boozman 51% - Lincoln 36%
State Senate Republican leader Kim Hendren 51% Lincoln 36%
State Senator Gilbert Baker 51% Lincoln 36%
Businessman Curtis Coleman 48% to Lincolns 36%.
In every case, the Republicans have gained support, while Lincoln, who earned 38% to 41% in the match-ups last month, has lost ground. Now her numbers are back to the lows she experienced in February.
Boozman [presently] runs strongest against Halter, leading him 48% to 34%. Holt posts a 43% to 34% over Halter; Hendren has 42% to 34% lead. Baker has 44% to 36% and Coleman’s 40% to Halter’s 37%.
[Rasmussen did not poll Conrad Reynolds and others GOP candidates against Lincoln or Halter.]
Other Issues:
Repeal the Health Care Bill: 63% favor repeal; 33% are opposed to repeal.
Who Understands America's Problems Better: TEA Party members or the Average member of Congress: 53% say the average Tea Party member; 26% say the average member of Congress.
Obama’s Performance as President: Just 37% of voters approve; 61% disapprove.
