McConnell and Lunsford Virtually Tied in Poll

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) appears to have a tough re-election race on his hands, according to the latest polls.

McConnell leads Democrat Bruce Lunsford 50 percent to 46 percent in the latest SurveyUSA poll, which has a margin of error of four percentage points.

Lunsford, a businessman, led McConnell 49 percent to 44 percent in a Rasmussen poll three weeks ago. That survey had a margin of error of 4.5 points.
