HARTFORD — Connecticut voters are torn between Sen. Hillary Clinton and Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former New York City mayor, in the 2008 presidential race, according to the latest Quinnipiac University Poll.

Within their political parties, both Clinton and Giuliani are far ahead of Democratic U.S. Sen. Barack Obama and Republican Sen. John McCain, respectively. But in a head-to-head matchup for the White House, they are virtually a statistical deadlock.

Clinton is up 43 percent to 16 percent for Obama, while Giuliani is ahead of McCain, 42 percent to 14 percent. Clinton is ahead by a razor-thin 2 percent on Giuliani in the state, according to the polling of 1,391 registered Connecticut voters.

Back in May, Clinton was only 8 points ahead of Obama.

Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., lags far behind, with a mere 7 percent in his home state, the Q Poll found as part of a New York, Connecticut and New Jersey tri-state survey of more than 1,400 voters.

Also in May, Rudy was beating every Dem.

I will post the full Quinnipiac poll when they do.
