Last night, the Weekly Standard reported “a private poll conducted last week by a reputable non-partisan firm. In that survey, Democratic Attorney General Martha Coakley led Republican state senator Scott Brown in the ballot test by 50% to 39%–not bad for Brown in a state Obama carried by 23 points.” This morning, Michael Graham sends word that “Scott Rasmussen just told my pals at Fox 25 that the current margin in the US Senate race is Coakley 50, Brown 41.”

Difficult, but not impossible for Brown. A snowstorm on Election Day might be helpful.

UPDATE: Brian Maloney offers this thought: “If Brown is catching up with Coakley, it isn’t something you’d want plastered all over the news, because it could increase Democratic votes. Low turnout is key to any Brown victory (and I DO mean low).”
