NY Senate--Survey USA shows Gillibrand in a toss-up with DioGuradi!?

I think these likely voter models pollsters are using are over stating the GOP vote, I honestly do. I don't see how NY voters could elect a sleaze like DioGuardi.

1. The media and the republicans are fudging these type of polls

because they are trying to be sure the already programmed voting machines that favor republicans won't be questioned.
