New Poll

• From Rasmussen Reports

• August 4, 2005--The latest Rasmussen Reports survey in Virginia finds that Republican Jerry Kilgore still leads Democrat Tim Kaine by six percentage points in the Governor's race. That margin has held steady for three consecutive surveys.

  The August survey finds Kilgore leading Kaine 45% to 39%. Five percent (5%) of voters say they will vote for some other candidate. (Read All)

I said the Mason Dixon poll was a fluke! The new poll is encouraging to say the least. The main point I see here is a trend. This was the tenth poll on the race. The margins are somewhat stable with Kilgore leading by 10 or less points. I would like the lead to be larger, but if the 5 points hold that will translate into a landslide on election day.

Mr. Behan was also skeptical of the Mason Dixon poll and now offers this post and advice.

Norman has this- Pay No Attention to That Poll!

Commonwealth Watch weighs in with this post.

Waldo Jaquith has a couple thoughts from the blue side.

Raising Kaine as of 4:47pm HAS NOTHING.
