Serious News out of Alaska: Dems leading House and Senate race

[Thorgrim]

Research 2000 for Daily Kos. 12/3-6. Likely voters. MoE 4% (No trend lines)

If 2008 election for Congress were held today, for whom would you vote for if the choices were between Ethan Berkowitz, the Democrat, and Don Young, the Republican?

Young (R) 42
Berkowitz (D) 49



If 2008 election for U.S. Senate were held today, for whom would you vote for if the choices were between Mark Begich, the Democrat, and Ted Stevens, the Republican?

Stevens (R) 41
Begich (D) 47

Wow, I can't believe I'm rooting for Ted Stevens and Rep. Young NOT to leave

I'd normally put this in the 2008 senate thread, but it's only one poll and it's really shocking

There is no reason Stevens should be on the ballot. The man needs to crawl into a cave and never come out. The Republicans deserve to lose Alaska for not putting more pressure on Stevens to walk the plank.

Totally deserved, corrupt people tend to earn the scorn of the people they serve.
