PA-Sen: Morning Call/Muhlenberg Poll: McGinty 43% Toomey 38%

katie_mcgintyDemocratic nominee Katie McGinty is back in the lead.

That’s according to the latest Morning Call/Muhlenberg College Poll, which found McGinty leading incumbent GOP Senator Pat Toomey 43% to 38%.

One reason for these results can be seen in Sen. Toomey’s approval ratings. The freshman Senator holds just a 27% approval rating against a 37% disapproval rating. 36% had no opinion.

Toomey’s favorable/unfavorable split was also a rather poor 28/37 although McGinty’s 23/28 split isn’t exactly stellar either.

The Morning Call/Muhlenberg Poll was conducted by Muhlenberg University from September 12th to 16th. They surveyed 400 likely Pennsylvania voters. The margin of error is +/-5.5%.

  1. Plus Toomey is running a full-bore Repub campaign of fear & smear, following 20-year old playbook and expecting it to work. We’ll see whether the “I’ve Got the Cops and the Guns” approach still movtivates voters in 2016.

  2. Toomey voting record of supporting Wall Street Banks like Wells Fargo who are cheating average people is catching up to him. McGinty’s message from the first day of her campaign is to support Main Street.
