Dayton - 40%
Emmer - 38%
Horner - 15%
Undecided - 7%

The previous poll had Emmer leading by 1 point, but since then Emmer has slipped 8 points, Dayton has slipped one point and Horner has gained 6 points.

I consider this significant since these poll usually do favor the Republicans.

1. So that means a 10pt Dayton lead in other polls?

2. Margin of error is 4

So to me that indicates Dayton is leading by at least 6 percent.

Interesting to see MN's infamous indie voters prefer Dayton by 4 percent to Horner. Pres Obama has a 50% approval rating in the state according to Ras and 49% approval for Pawlenty. I'm skeptical of the latter to say the least.

Turnout will be the key, of course, which Mark appreciates: the Pres will be here for him Oct 23.
