Independent poll shows Jindal with 11-point lead [View All]

[Frodo]

I would have dismissed "Market Research Insight" as a biased polling firm (not knowing their work), but they were the only firm showing Blanco ahead outside the MOE three weeks ago. This has been a monster shift away from her. From +10% to -11% in just over two weeks (and with just four days to go!)

BATON ROUGE — Republican Bobby Jindal had an 11-point lead over Democrat Kathleen Blanco in an independent poll out Thursday, the first such survey showing Jindal with a clear lead.

Jindal had 49 percent compared to Democrat Kathleen Blanco’s 38 percent in the independent poll by Verne Kennedy of Marketing Research Insight of Pensacola, Fla.

The poll is the first survey outside the party camps showing Jindal with a lead outside the 4-point margin of error inherent in polling data.
