I am waiting to see if multiple independent polls confirm this because this is not in line with what we have seen in other polls of this race. I certainly don't trust a single poll which is an NRSC internal.
I also noticed that article is written by --
Matthew Gagnon of Yarmouth is the chief executive officer of the Maine Policy Institute, a free market policy think tank based in Portland. A Hampden native, he previously served as a senior strategist for the Republican Governors Association in Washington, D.C.
