IT'S STILL EARLY BUT...

it looks like that scumbag Kyl will get re-elected unless Pederson starts campaigning harder. From my local paper:

A new poll of Arizona voters gives Republican U.S. Sen. Jon Kyl a commanding lead over Democratic challenger Jim Pederson.

The poll shows Kyl handily beating Pederson in all parts of the state, even in the reliably Democratic stronghold of Pima County.

Conducted by the nonpartisan Behavior Research Center of Phoenix, the poll shows Kyl beating Pederson 55-26 percent statewide, with 19 percent undecided.

In Pima County, it says Kyl would beat Pederson today 44-29 percent, with 27 percent undecided.

And in the rural parts of Arizona, Kyl wins 54-24 percent, with 22 percent undecided.
