In a one on one race with Rudy, Fred has picked up a net of 12 points since the mid August poll 3 weeks ago. Whereas Rudy led by 59-34 as of August 16, his lead is now only 53-40.
I put much more faith in Rasmussen than Gallup, particularly given this small sample, but it does indicate the trend is very definitely and sharply in Fred’s favor.
Fred always makes an ass out of me by making my predictions come true way quicker than I said he would. I’ve been saying it would take a month for him to get a firm lead on Rudy. We’ll see what happens...
