Yes, Senator Chambliss, you really do have a race. A Democracy Corps poll, conducted by Democratic firm Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research, surveyed 600 likely voters 10/16-19 for a margin of error of +/- 4%. Saxby Chambliss and Democrat Jim Martin were tested.

Chambliss......48
Martin.........44

Chambliss' job ratings aren't stellar. Just 39% say he's doing an excellent or good job, while 43% call his job performance "just fair" or poor.

But it may be an intensely local issue that saves the senator: At a recent debate, Martin said he didn't favor deepening the Savannah Harbor Channel by six feet, which local officials said could put hundreds of thousands of jobs at risk. Though Martin later said he hadn't understood the issue, Chambliss has already jumped on the misstatement and criticized his Democratic opponent.
