Tancredo Nearly Catches Hickenlooper

A new Magellan Strategies survey in Colorado shows John Hickenlooper (D) barely ahead Tom Tancredo (C) in the race for governor, 44% to 43%, with Dan Maes (R) way back at just 9%.

Since a similar August survey, Maes has plummeted from 27% to 9% with the vast majority of his supporters now backing Tancredo.

Early indications from a Public Policy Polling survey currently in the field also suggest the race is competitive.

1. I heard

that if the GOP doesn't pull more than some percent (5? 10? 15?) of the vote for governor then they are relegated to minor-party status until they requalify.

3. Three weeks ago the same site had Hickenlooper

winning in a huge Landslide. Now it's too close to call? Bullshit. There are no worries in this race. Tancrado is toast.

4. (C) ? Copyright? Cornservative? Crazymofo?

"But with a name like HIckenlooper, he's got to be good."

5. That's horrible. If Tancredo is elected, then we will truly go into the dark ages of the USA.

Tancredo is a racist, xenophobic fool of the highest order. I hope that people have better sense than to elect this man.

He'd be worse than Brewer in office--and that would be very bad.

6. Magellan Strategies is a Republican polling outfit.
