Among Democratic primary voters, Arlen Specter holds a similarly massive lead over Joe Sestak:

In hypothetical general election match ups, Specter beats Toomey by nine but loses to Ridge by seven:

Toomey (R) 40
Undecided 10

Ridge (R) 48
Specter (D) 41

These results come on the heels of the Quinnipiac survey released on Monday showing Specter leading Ridge by just 3 points.
