IN Sen Poll: Pence Leads Bayh

Indiana Rep. Mike Pence (R) leads Sen. Evan Bayh (D) by 3 points, according to a new Rasmussen poll (Jan. 21&24, 800 LV, MoE +/- 3.5%). Pence, the third ranking Republican in the House, is considering a Senate bid but hasn't indicated publicly which way he is leaning.

Bayh leads two other Republicans, ex-congressman John Hostettler and State Sen. Marlin Stutzman, but still polled below 50% -- not a good sign for an incumbent.

Bayh 44 - Pence 47 - Und 7

Bayh 44 - Hostettler 41 - Und 12

Bayh 45 - Stutzman 33 - Und 16
