     Any ideas why Avedisian is polling better than anyone else? I would not expect the mayor of Warwick to be so prominent.

Warwick is about 8-9% of the state' population, and Lincoln Chafee used to have that position.

     Indeed, but he is polling better than Robitaille, who ran for Governor & lost by only 2%, & Carcieri, who is a former two-term Governor. Avedisian is clearly not a random nobody, but I do not see why he is doing better than candidates who have run statewide before.

Couldn't it be that they have negatives from their statewide runs or terms that this guy doesn't?
