Gardner leads in latest poll

U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner, the Republican challenger in the Colorado U.S. Senate race, leads U.S. Sen. Mark Udall, the Democratic incumbent, 46 – 41 percent among likely voters, with 6 percent for independent candidate Steve Shogan.

That’s according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

Another 6 percent are undecided.

With 11 days until Election Day, 92 percent of Colorado likely voters say their mind is made up, while 8 percent might change their mind.

“The needle is barely moving for U.S. Sen. Mark Udall and U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner in a Senate race with potential national consequences” said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

Colorado likely voters give Sen. Udall a slightly negative 44 – 49 percent favorability rating, compared to Gardner’s positive 49 – 42 percent rating.
