The Pittsburgh Trib reports:
Only 31 percent of Pennsylvania voters believe Democratic Sen. Arlen Specter should be re-elected, and 59 percent believe it’s time to give someone else a chance, a state poll released today shows.
Specter’s numbers are “staggering,” said pollster Jim Lee, president of Susquehanna Polling and Research. An incumbent typically is vulnerable if fewer than 40 percent approve of his or her re-election, Lee said. . . “When I see a re-elect in the low 30s, that’s … near fatal,” Lee said.
A Susquehanna Poll in February found 38 percent of Pennsylvanians believed Specter deserved to be re-elected.
UPDATE: In the latest Rasmussen poll, Specter continues to trail Toomey, 40-45.
