Hirono Poll: Leads Lingle 56-38 Percent

By /
Mazie Hirono‘s U.S. Senate campaign released polling data Friday (Oct. 19) that show the candidate with a 56-38 percent lead over Republican Linda Lingle.

The survey, conducted by Benenson Strategy Group in early October, “also reveals that voters, by a 2-to-1 margin, hold favorable views of Hirono (62% favorable, 33% unfavorable), while nearly as many voters hold negative views of Lingle (47%) as hold positive views (49%),” according to the Hirono campaign.

Earlier this week, the Lingle campaign released an internal polling memo showing Lingle trailing Hirono by just 3 or 4 percentage points.
