In a Democratic Primary today in California's 3rd State Senate District, 18 days until votes are counted, incumbent Senator Carole Migden is defeated in her bid to keep her party's nomination, according to this exclusive KPIX-TV pre-primary poll conducted by SurveyUSA. Today, Mark Leno, assemblyman from California's 13th assembly district, gets 42% of the vote; Joe Nation, assemblyman from CA's 6th district, gets 22%; Migden finishes effectively tied with Nation, at 21%. Leno leads in almost every demographic sub-population. The winner of the Democratic primary is favored to win the November general election in this heavily Democratic district.
It looks good, but Carole is campaigning hard in The City. EVery day now, we are getting calls and literature either from her campaign or an organization that supports her. If she manages to cut into his numbers, Nation could conceivably sneak in. However, this is very good news so far. |
