For some reason, the Quinnipiac University website is broken this morning, so I have had to go to news organizations to get the latest results from Quinnipiac University for the state of Florida.
PRESIDENT – FLORIDA (Quinnipiac)
Hillary (D) 53%
Marco Rubio (R) 41%
Hillary (D) 50%
Jeb Bush (R) 43%

Joe Biden (R) 43%

Well I completely missed this yesterday from Scott Rasmussen. He released a new poll for the US Senate race in New Jersey and it shows Cory Booker with a 17% lead over Steve Lonegan.
US SENATE – NEW JERSEY (Rasmussen)
Cory Booker (D) 50%
Steve Lonegan (R) 33%
Last Friday, he also released a poll on the gubernatorial race that shows Christie with a 30% lead.
GOVERNOR – NEW JERSEY (Rasmussen)
Chris Christie (R-inc) 58%
Barbara Buono (D) 28%
Both polls were done June 12-13 among 1000 likely voters. Rasmussen had become so infrequent with actual useful electoral polling data that I had basically stopped going to his website. Plus, for some reason, his email started going into my spam folder, which is why I missed the polls. Meanwhile in Massachusetts, Gabriel Gomez released a new poll done by OnMessage Inc that claims he is only trailing by 7% against Ed Markey.
US SENATE – MASSACHUSETTS (OnMessage)
Ed Markey (D) 47%
Gabriel Gomez (R) 40%
This poll was done June 16-17 among 600 likely voters. I don’t think it takes a lot of political knowledge to know if you are a candidate releasing results of a poll showing yourself down 7% a week before an election, you are probably not expecting to win. One more internal poll for today that somewhat confirms the Quinnipiac University poll earlier that surprised me showing sitting Democratic Governor John Hickenlooper in trouble. It comes from Republican Scott Gessler, who claims he is within a single percentage point of Hickenlooper in a poll done by Magellan Strategies. (Thanks Michael for the tip)
GOVERNOR – COLORADO (Magellan)
John Hickenlooper (D-inc) 44%
Scott gessler (R) 43%
This poll was done June 4-5 among 500 likely voters. Quinnipiac University is showing on their website that they will be releasing polls for Connecticut and more results for Florida tomorrow morning at 6:30am.
We have a new poll from Public Policy Polling for the state of North Carolina that shows Kay Hagan is still going to be a tough seat for Republicans to take away.

The press release I linked above seemed to skip a lot of question numbers, so I wonder if we will see more results later in the week for the General Election match ups. This poll was done May 31-June 9 among 1200 registered voters. Meanwhile, Siena College’s latest poll shows Governor Andrew Cuomo down to his lowest re-elect number ever recorded in this poll.
NEW YORK GOVERNOR ANDREW CUOMO – RE-ELECT (Siena)
Re-Elect Cuomo 52%
Prefer Someone Else 41%
The problem for Republicans is coming up with a viable “Someone Else” between now and next year. This poll was done June 9-13 among 804 registered voters.
Other than a single season in 2005 where Brian Roberts managed to be elected as a starter in the All-Star Game; it really hasn’t been since Cal Ripken retired in 2001 where I have even paid any attention to any Orioles’ player threatening to start in an All-Star game. It was just assumed the Orioles would get their obligatory single player selected who may or may not end up actually playing in the game. This year, they may end up with four starters in a single season if the current voting totals hold up….
Another day, another poll showing a seemingly insurmountable lead for Chris Christie in the state of New Jersey. This time it comes from Richard Stockton College.
GOVERNOR – NEW JERSEY (Stockton)
Chris Christie (R-inc) 64%
Barbara Buono (D) 24%
This poll was done June 8-13 among 741 likely voters.
We have more of the poll for the state of Colorado from Quinnipiac University and it claims Hillary would actually lose to both Marco Rubio and Chris Christie in a 2016 matchup.
PRESIDENT – COLORADO (Quinnipiac)
Marco Rubio (R) 46%
Hillary (D) 45%
Marco Rubio (R) 48%
Joe Biden (D) 35%
Chris Christie (R) 44%
Hillary (D) 41%
Chris Christie (R) 48%
Joe Biden (D) 32%
I want to believe this poll is accurate, but coupled with the numbers yesterday claiming Tom Tancredo was within a single percentage point of the incumbent Governor, I have a feeling this poll is a tad too-Republican leaning. This poll was done June 5-10 among 1065 registered voters. Meanwhile, Rutgers has a new gubernatorial poll for New Jersey and it has Chris Christie’s lead standing at 32%.
GOVERNOR – NEW JERSEY (Rutgers)
Chris Christie (R-inc) 59%
Barbara Buono (D) 27%
This poll was done June 3-9 among 763 registered voters. This race is just not moving for Buono.
A somewhat surprising, at least to me, poll this morning for the state of Colorado from Quinnipiac University that shows Republcian Tom Tancredo within a single percentage point of John Hickenlooper in the race for Governor.
GOVERNOR – COLORADO (Quinnipiac)
John Hickenlooper (D-inc) 42%
Tom Tancredo (R) 41%
John Hickenlooper (D-inc) 42%
Scott Gessler (R) 40%
John Hickenlooper (D-inc) 43%
Greg Brophy (R) 37%

So I take a day off from really posting anything and come back this morning to find we have yet another Republican politician who thinks talking about rape and pregnancy. It scares me to think how many other Republicans out there are also thinking – “Hmm, Akin and Mourdock didn’t say it quite right, so let me weigh in….”
This morning, we have a new Monmouth University poll for the gubernatorial and US Senate races in New Jersey showing Chris Christie and Cory Booker well on their way to easy wins later this year.
GOVERNOR – NEW JERSEY (Monmouth)

This poll was done June 10-11 among 636 likely voters. Meanwhile, the conservative polling organization that was supposed to counteract Public Policy Polling, Harper Polling, is out with a new poll on the US Senate race in Massachusetts and it shows Ed Markey with a double-digit lead.
US SENATE – MASSACHUSETTS (Harper)
Ed Markey (D) 49%
Gabriel Gomez (R) 37%
This poll was done June 10-11 among 498 likely voters.
