WA 08: Tied Up
It's going to be one of the closest races in the nation, and the latest poll out of Washington's Eighth Congressional District reflects just that. A Research 2000/DailyKos poll surveyed 400 likely voters between 10/21-23 for a margin of error of +/- 4.9%. Republican Rep. Dave Reichert and businesswoman Darcy Burner were tested.
General Election Matchup
(All / Dem / GOP / Ind / Men / Wom)
Reichert....46 / 12 / 88 / 45 / 49 / 43 (-3 from last, 10/7)
Burner......46 / 82 / 5 / 46 / 44 / 48 (+5)
Recent polls have showed Burner making a comeback after trailing Reichert for most of the year. But a flap over Burner's degree at Harvard as well as Reichert's reputation as a top-notch campaigner means the Republican isn't done yet.
