The Kansas Senate race between Republican incumbent Pat Roberts and independent candidate Greg Orman is tied two weeks out from Election Day, according to a new survey.
A new Monmouth University poll finds Roberts and Orman with 46 percent supoort among likely voters, with five percent remaining undecided. Three percent say they will vote for a different candidate.
The poll also finds that Orman has become Democrats’ de facto candidate after the party’s former nominee withdrew from the race last month. Eighty-one percent of Kansas Democrats said they will vote for Orman in November. In fact, a greater proportion of Democrats support him than do independents, of which 60 percent support Orman.
Meanwhile, 37 percent of Kansans favor a Republican-controlled Senate, while 29 percent prefer Democrats to retain control. Another 30 percent don’t care either way.
