Tuesday's Primary



Well not too many suprises from Tuesday. Sen. Lincoln Chafee won his primary over Cranston Mayor Steve Laffey 54%-46%. It looks like after such poor support from his party in the primary he might have a serious fight on his hands against fmr. Attorney General Sheldon Whitehouse. In New York State Attorney General Elliot Spitzer won his primary is a huge landslide. He will face off against State Assembly Minority Leader John Faso. Ex Yonkers Mayor John Spencer defeated Fmr. Deputy Assistant Sec. of Defense KT McFarland 60%-40%. He will face off against popular incumbant Hillary Clinton who won her primary in a huge landslide. In Maryland Congressman Ben Cardin defeated fmr. Congressman and fmr. NAACP President Kweisi Mfume 47%-37%. Religious Activist Len Munsil defeated Don Goldwater, Nephew to fmr. Presidential Candidate and Senator Barry Goldwater 50%-40%. In other political news Sen. Joe Lieberman is steaming away from Ned Lamont and Alan Schlesinger according to the latest SurveyUSA poll. They show Lieberman 51% Lamont 38% Schlesinger 7%. This could be misinterperted because the last Rasmussen poll showed Lieberman with a 2 point lead. Arnold Schwartzenegger is still holding a great lead over Phil Angelides. The latest Rasmussen poll shows Schwartzenegger 47% Angelides 33%. That is all for today
