WA Governor: Gregoire leads Rossi 51-40

[Adlai Stevenson]

It will be a close race regardless of what the polls now say.  I think Gregoire should win considering a Democratic presidential candidate will be at the top of the ticket and her performance in office has been reasonably good so far.  However, a majority of people believed Rossi should have been elected in 2004, and that will help him somewhat.
