A new poll in New Jersey's Second District finds Medford Township Councilman Chris Myers (R) with a slim lead over State Senator John Adler (D) in the race for this open seat. The district, which encompasses a large portion of South Jersey including Philadelphia suburbs and Atlantic city, gave Al Gore an 11-point win in 2000, then voted for Pres. Bush in 2004.

A Press of Atlantic City poll, conducted by Richard Stockton College, surveyed 400 likely voters between 9/18-20 for a margin of error of +/- 4.9%. Myers and Adler were tested.

General Election Matchup
(All / Men / Women)
Myers....39 / 46 / 32
Adler.....37 / 36 / 38

With 22% of voters still undecided, according to the poll, and the candidates separated by only 2 points, the race is clearly up for grabs.
