Wait, what?

[BlueDemKev]

1. Damn.

[aaaaaa5a]

2. Obama will win MA by 20

Scott Brown needs to be up by more than 2 if he is going to win on election day.


Not THAT MANY people split tickets.


Outlier.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

3. She was winning by 6 points just the other day. What the hell is going on?!?!??!

[Proud Liberal Dem]

5. Exactly what I was wondering

Every poll for awhile now has had Warren in the lead. Did something happen????

[CreekDog]

22. is this the only poll?

last time i checked, it was not.

[DarthDem]

4. Ridiculous

Warren's going to win. Bad poll and total outlier.

[ProudProgressiveNow]

7. +1 nt

[Mass]

6. Same poll that had Coakley by 15 in 2010 and Patrick by 2 the same year.

[Mr.Turnip]

8. It's an outlier folks, Warren has had a small but consistent lead for weeks in most polls.

[WI_DEM]

9. They also have Obama up by only 52-38--a lot of the 'undecideds' must be dems

and they will break for Obama and Warren.

[RightBWrong]

11. I wish the nation could see.....

.... that there is a reason Massachusetts is not voting for their "native son". Romney was very unpopular after his term as governor.

[marlakay]

10. I heard she just got moved from toss up to lean dem

In mass. I hope this isn't true!

[RightBWrong]

12. Why? Toss up to lean dem is good! nt

[hrmjustin]

13. this poll is bunk.

[WI_DEM]

14. It's 47-47 with leaners...

Brown Overtakes Warren in Massachusetts
A new Boston Globe poll in Massachusetts shows Sen. Scott Brown (R) with a razor thin lead over Elizabeth Warren (D) in their U.S. Senate race among likely voters, 45% to 43%.

In September, Warren held a five point lead.

However, Brown's lead evaporates, with 47% for each candidate, when voters who are undecided are asked which candidate they are leaning toward.

15. WTF?

[John2]

16. The Boston Globe

had endorsed Mitt Romney so they do have a dog in this fight. My correction, they endorsed Scott Brown.

[ProSense]

17. No, the BG endorsed both Warren and the President

In Senate, Warren would lead where Brown has fallen short

Barack Obama deserves another term

18. Don't freak out. Like the MN poll that had Obama by only 3 yesterday, every election cycle

brings bad non consistent polls. Just look at the average and overall trends. Warren leads by a little over 3 points at Pollster.

[TroyD]

19. I have followed the MA Senate race very carefully and posted most of the polls this fall

Warren has been ahead in almost every poll this month. Even Rasmussen's most recent poll has her (+5).

Both Larry Sabato and Stu Rothenberg have the race as Leans Dem in their rankings, and Nate Silver gives her a 95% chance of winning!

[RosedaleGuy]

20. Are Obama Voters Voting for Brown?

Obama has a good lead in Massachusetts. So, why doesn't Warren get the same lead? If you want Obama then you certainly want the Senate on his side. Who are these Massachusetts Obama voters voting for Scott Brown?

[duster00]

21. Comforting to know, but...

The chickens may be coming home to roost. Late-breakers for the incumbent, since we've had all year to watch if the economy's getting better and the alleged bipartisanism of Brown may be looking more attractive to voters.

If Obama is beating Romney by +14, and Brown is drawing 12% of Obama voters, doesn't that mean that this race really is a tie?

[TroyD]

23. The numbers come out to Warren 47, Brown 47
