New Poll for 161st State House (Lentz / Gannon)

According to a press release from the Bryan Lentz campaign:

A recent poll, however, conducted on behalf of the Lentz campaign demonstrates that in the face of that negative onslaught, Lentz closed a 22 point gap since August and is now in a dead heat with Tom Gannon.

Jeff Pollock of Global Strategies, who conducted the poll, said the numbers speak for themselves. As Lentz's message continues to percolate through the district, more voters will get on board.


Lentz, a veteran of the Iraq War, as well as service in Bosnia and the Sinai Peninsula, was a prosecutor in the Philadelphia DA's office before going into private practice. He is the Democratic challenger to incumbent Republican Tom Gannon who has been in the state house for 28 years.

[Note: I had originally copied the same press release quote twice when I meant to include two different quotes. My apologies for this error. It had now been fixed.]

they repeated the exact same phrase twice in one release? should we send over a thesaurus?

No, that was an attack of blurry blogger brain. I didn't get the second quote cut and pasted correctly so the first one pasted in twice. Cutting and pasting is not one of my major life talents. There is a reason I'm not allowed to run with scissors at work or home.
