Poll gives Shaheen huge lead over Sununu in US Senate race
MANCHESTER, N.H. -- A new poll on the 2008 New Hampshire Senate race shows that if former Governor Jeanne Shaheen were to have a re-match against Senator John E. Sununu she would easily defeat him.
The poll, by Manchester-based American Research Group, gives Shaheen a 57-29 percent lead over Sununu.
So far, however, Shaheen has not made a decision to run even though some in the Democratic establishment have launched a "Draft Shaheen" effort.
In 2002, Sununu defeated Shaheen 51 percent to 46 percent.
