A new Mason-Dixon poll conducted for the Las Vegas Review-Journal and 8NewsNow show Sen. Harry Reid and Sharron Angle still locked in a virtual tie with Reid beating Angle 46 percent to 44 percent and a 4 percent margin of error.
Two weeks ago, Mason-Dixon showed Reid at 43 percent and Angle at 42 percent.
Only 5 percent of voters in this more recent poll said they were still undecided, while 2 percent picked “other” candidates and 3 percent chose “none of these” candidates.
Mason-Dixon also floated questions about voter willingness to give up the Senate majority leader’s influence. About half of those surveyed, 51 percent, said Reid’s clout is not too valuable to give up, while 45 percent said Nevada needs him.
Reid is still seen unfavorably by just over half of those surveyed, while Angle is viewed unfavorably by 45 percent.
The survey showed 41 percent of those polled say Angle as “too extreme,” but Reid is also seen as “too extreme” by 36 percent.
Early voting is now just nine weeks away.
