Sestak Keeps Lead Heading Into Final Week
The latest Muhlenberg/Morning Call tracking poll in Pennsylvania finds Rep. Joe Sestak (D) leading Sen. Arlen Specter (D) in the Democratic U.S. Senate primary, 47% to 43%.
The primary is next Tuesday.
Another Incumbent Fights for His Political Life
“It’s election day in West Virginia, and all eyes are on one congressional race,” the Charleston Gazette reports.
Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-WV) is facing his “first serious threat in more than a decade” as Michael Oliverio (D) battles him in the 1st congressional district Democratic primary.
Fox News: “Mollohan chairs the House Commerce, Justice and Science Appropriations Subcommittee. He’s served 14 terms in the House, including winning an uncontested 2008 election. Mollohan hasn’t faced a primary challenger since 1992. But he now finds himself in the race of his life as West Virginia Democrats have soured on the veteran lawmaker.”
Poll close in West Virginia at 7:30 pm.
