In a media exclusive, Townhall.com has obtained a brand new, eye-opening poll from California's 47th Congressional District--conducted by Public Opinion Strategies:

Van Tran is tied with Loretta Sanchez on the ballot test. Fully 39% of likely voters say they are supporting Van Tran, while 39% are backing Sanchez and 5% siding with Ceci Iglesias (17% undecided). Moreover, Tran’s definite support level is higher than that of Congresswoman Sanchez (30% definitely voting for Tran – 28% definitely voting for Sanchez).

- While there are certainly solid ethnic coalitions in this race – Asian and Vietnamese voters siding with Tran, Latinos favoring Sanchez – Tran enjoys a commanding 34-point lead with White voters in the district (60% Tran – 26% Sanchez).

- Van Tran also polls strongly with Independent voters (42% Tran – 28% Sanchez) and older voters (50% Tran – 30% Sanchez) – two groups that are likely going to determine the victor here.

- Van Tran has a commanding 22-point lead over Sanchez (52% - 30%) among voters who say they are “extremely interested” in the upcoming elections (rate their interest a “10”on a one-to-ten scale). Among a broader high interest segment of the electorate – the “8-10s” – Tran is up eight points (44% - 38%).

If the incumbent’s only polling 39% two weeks before the election, chances are she's toast.

Frosting on the cake at about 2AM EST on November 3rd.

[CPT Clay]

39 percent for an incumbant this close to the election?

[GrandmaPatriot]

We have to watch out for all those illegal voters. I hope someone will be watching very, very carefully.

If Sanchez lost, it would make my day.

[Zhang Fei]

I sure hope Van Tran wins one for B1-Bob...

This illustrates how important motivation is in this election. We could win races where polls have us down as much as 15 points if the motivated voters show up and the unmotivated don’t. It also may indicate that as voters become more interested in the election and learning about the candidates, they are going to favor Van Tran.

While we’re replacing Loretta Sanchez, let’s also defeat her sister, Linda, in CA-39. Her opponent is Larry Andre, http://www.voteandre.com/ .
