A poll done in April for the Mississippi Education Association showed how each Republican in the race for Lt. Governor matched up against Democratic Nominee Jamie Franks. The results are as follows:
33.1% Franks
36.6% Bryant
30.3% Don't Know / No Reply
32.8% Franks
29.3% Ross
37.9% Don't Know / No Reply
What I think is pretty amazing here is that Franks appears competitive at this point. Admittedly this comes before both Republicans spend over a half a million each, but a good chunk of that has been in tearing each other down. I'd like to see a newer poll since the advertising began if anyone would care to share it.
The good news for all the candidates is that this will almost certainly head to a runoff--it's hard to imagine anyone getting more than 51% of the vote in a competitive four-way race.
