Polling done earlier this month shows that, as we expected, McBride was pulling more votes from Conley than he was from Graham. McBride was pulling in 10% and once removed from the slate, Conley shot up by 11 points. However, Flat-top Bob still has a long way to go to be competitive with Lindsey.
Here are the numbers:
Lindsey Graham 52
Bob Conley 21
Mark McBride 10
Lindsey Graham 54
Bob Conley 32

Mark McBride has launched a petition drive to be placed on the US Senate ballot as an Independent. Will he have any better luck than Buddy Witherspoon? Or will he draw enough disaffected Republicans away from Lindsey to give the race to Democrat Bob Conley (who’s also running to the right of Lindsey on immigration)?
