Poll: Warren And Brown Running Neck-And-Neck In Mass. Senate Race
The widely watched U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts remains close, a new poll released Tuesday evening shows.
According to the latest survey from MassINC Polling Group, Democrat Elizabeth Warren earns the support of 40 percent of voters, while Republican Sen. Scott Brown picks up the support of 38 percent. The 2-point gap is within the polls 4.4 percent margin of error.
Voters nationwide appear to be growing frustrated with both presidential candidates as negative campaigning intensifies, but Massachusetts voters are warming up to both Warren and Brown. Tuesdays poll shows that Warrens favorability rating stands at 47 percent, a 13-point jump from MassINCs April poll and a sign that voters continue to learn more about the Harvard Law professor and consumer watchdog. Browns favorability rating also increased, albeit by a smaller margin, from 46 percent in April to 50 percent in the most recent poll.
