Colorado Attorney General Ken Salazar has a runaway lead in the Democratic primary race against rival Mike Miles, according to a Denver Post poll.
Salazar won support from 67 percent of the 400 likely Democratic voters polled Aug. 2-4. Miles had 21 percent. Twelve percent were undecided. The poll had a margin of error of 5 percentage points.
"It's pretty clear that Salazar is in control of that race," said Brad Coker, managing director of Mason-Dixon Polling & Research Inc., which conducted the poll. "He's the horse that Democrats want to ride."
Miles often compares himself to Seabiscuit, the horse that overcame long odds to win the big race and gained new fame in a recent movie.
