CA-Sen Poll Watch: Barbara Boxer Remains Vulnerable

February 16, 2010 /

In the latest Rasmussen poll, there are really NO surprises.

2010 Senate

  • 46% Boxer (D), 42% Fiorina (R)
  • 47% Boxer (D), 42% DeVore (R)
  • 45% Boxer (D), 41% Campbell (R)

Favorable / Unfavorable

  • Barbara Boxer: 51 / 46
  • Chuck DeVore: 32 / 36
  • Carly Fiorina: 37 / 40
  • Tom Campbell: 44 / 33

The incumbent Senator Boxer is below 50 per cent approval and all three GOP contenders are showing strength against her. With Tom Campbell entering the race, it continues to be difficult to predict the mix of votes for the June GOP primary election. However, both Campbell and DeVore are at a financial campaign cash disadvantage to former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina.

Whoever can turn out their voters on primary day will win the Republican nomination.

If anything, having three contesting Republicans, all with good poll numbers heads up with Boxer, will limit the ability of the Democrats to run negative ads against them before June. If Boxer targets one of the Republicans, it might actually counterintuitively help that candidate beat her in the Fall.

Stay tuned…..
