LOOKS BLEAK FOR DOBSON'S BOY

Len Munsil, the GOP choice to run for governor and Dobson's legate for Arizona, trails Janet Politano badly. Despite Arizona's status as a conservative state, most people find the religious wingnuts like Munsil disturbing.

The Phoenix-based Behavior Research Center on Thursday released a poll that found Napolitano supported by 58 percent of those voters surveyed Sept. 26-Oct. 3, compared with 24 percent for Munsil, 2 percent for Libertarian Barry Hess and 16 percent undecided.

Among the voters questioned in the poll, 420 considered likely to actually vote in the Nov. 7 general election went 62 percent for Napolitano and 25 percent for Munsil, with a margin of error of 5 percentage points, BRC pollster Earl de Berge said.

The BRC poll's results resembled those of a survey conducted several days earlier, Sept. 21-24, by Arizona State University. Napolitano had 64 percent, Munsil 28 percent, Hess 2 percent and 6 percent undecided in the ASU survey, based on interviews with 882 registered voters deemed likely to vote.
