Poll: One-third of Electorate Undecided

According to a recent AP-GfK poll, up to one-third of voters may still be undecided.

WASHINGTON – One in three people has yet to lock onto a choice in the Nov. 2 congressional elections, according to an Associated Press-GfK Poll. Yet in this year of the fed-up voter, even these folks offer little hope to Democrats.

Despite record political spending and months of frenzied campaigning, one-third of likely voters remain steadfastly undecided or favor a candidate but say they could change their mind, according to the survey.

Furthermore, independents are voting overwhelmingly Republican this year.

Fence-sitters, though, are likelier to be independents — a bad sign for Democrats in a year when independents are leaning toward GOP candidates. Underscoring their distaste for ideology, just 29 percent consider themselves tea party supporters, compared with 41 percent of those who’ve picked a candidate.

This is a very special year for Republicans nationwide. We have a real chance to take back districts in the bluest of blue (h/t Domenico Modugno) New York City!

Get out and support a local candidate this weekend!!!
