IL Sen, Gov Poll: Madigan Can Choose
Posted by Kyle Trygstad | Email This | Permalink | Email Author
A new PPP poll finds Illinois Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan (D) leading Democratic opponents in hypothetical gubernatorial and Senate primary contests. While she appears to be leaning toward a run for governor, she currently holds a larger lead in a Senate primary.
Without Madigan included, Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias leads Rep. Jan Schakowsky and Sen. Roland Burris in a three-person race, and he would crush Burris by 29 points if the primary includes just the two of them. Madigan leads Gov. Pat Quinn by 16 points in a gubernatorial primary.
Senate (with Madigan)
Madigan 44
Giannoulias 19
Burris 13
Schakowsky 11
Senate (without Madigan)
Giannoulias 38
Schakowsky 26
Burris 16
Governor
Madigan 45
Quinn 29
Und 26
