NV-Sen GOP Poll Watch: Rep. Dean Heller Ready to Unseat Sen. John Ensign?

It certainly looks like it in this private, commissioned poll.

Rep. Dean Heller (R-NV) “all but telegraphed his intention” to challenge Sen. John Ensign (R-NV) in a GOP primary by giving Jon Ralston a poll he commissioned showing he leads the incumbent senator by double-digits, 53% to 38%.

“The survey, taken last month, is the strongest indication yet that Heller will take on Ensign — otherwise, I would not have these results because if he were not running, these numbers would never have seen the light of day. He took a poll to gauge his competitiveness, and these results have to have thrilled him.”

Yes, Heller will run and beat the ethics challenged Senator Ensign – if Ensign even runs for re-election. I doubt Ensign bothers to run.

Watch Sharron Angle manuver to run for Dean Heller’s Congressional seat.
