Rasmussen is the latest pollster to show Alexi Giannoulias (D) on a downward trajectory in the Illinois Senate race.

General Election Matchup
Kirk 41 (unch vs. last poll, 3/8)
Giannoulias 37 (-7)
Und 13 (+3)

A poll yesterday from Rasmussen showed Democrat Pat Quinn trailing in the gubernatorial race as well, with just 38 percent. The fact that the two Democrats at the top of the ticket in President Obama's adopted home surely doesn't bode well for the rest of the Democratic slate. Obama does have a 58 percent approval rating there, 5th-highest among the states Rasmussen has polled recently.

But 44 percent of Illinois voters now view Giannoulias unfavorably, as the struggles of his family bank have become more widely known. Meanwhile, the state narrowly supports the Obama health care law, 48 percent saying it's good and 44 percent saying it's bad for the country.
