Hate to sound like an alarmist but figured you all should see the newest poll out of Maryland:
Rep. Chris Van Hollen narrowly leads rival Rep. Donna Edwards in Maryland's competitive Democratic Senate primary race, according to a new NBC4/Marist poll of the state.
The poll showed that 44 percent of likely Democratic primary voters back Van Hollen, while 38 percent support Edwards and 18 percent remain undecided in advance of Maryland's April 26 primary election.
In the Democratic race to replace outgoing Sen. Barbara Mikulski, Van Hollen leads among men, 50 percent to 34 percent, while female voters are evenly divided between the two candidates, with each receiving 40 percent support.
Emily's List, a pro-choice organization that backs women in politics, has endorsed Edwards and pumped at least $2.4 million into her run.
Edwards leads with African Americans (59% to Van Hollen's 22%) and lower-income voters (46% to 36%).
Van Hollen bests Edwards among white voters (62% to Edwards' 21%), higher-income voters (47% to 37%) and college graduates (49% to 36%).
The poll was conducted from April 5th to the 9th and surveyed 775 likely Democratic voters with 3.5% margin of error. Still a tight race here but one that we can still win. It’s all about getting the voters out to the polls on April 26th. Click here to donate and get involved with Edwards’ campaign.
