New Poll Shows Front-Runner To Replace Senator Mikulski

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — A day after a leader emerges in the Baltimore mayor’s race, there’s also a front-runner in the race for Maryland’s US Senate seat.

Mary Bubala has the results.

The poll, conducted by Opinion Works for the Baltimore Sun and the University of Baltimore, is the first snapshot of who voters think should replace Senator Barbara Mikulski.

Mikulski is retiring in 2017 after four decades of public service and two prominent politicians want to fill her seat: Representative Chris Van Hollen of Montgomery Country and Representative Donna Edwards of Prince George’s County—and right now, one of them has a double digit lead.

In a new poll for the Baltimore Sun and the University of Maryland, Chris Van Hollen has 45% of the vote to Edwards’ 31%.

“They both get very big leads out of their home counties but up here in Baltimore, Van Hollen has made serious inroads,” said Steve Raabe, president of Opinion Works.

Van Hollen would be worse than Babs. You can't trust one word he says.

Agree on Van Hollen. What is wrong with the people who keep voting these loons into office. Simply hard to believe.
