LePage (R)- 40%
Michaud (D)- 40%
Cutler (I)- 13%


Michaudmentum! Their last poll had LePage up.

LePage might be the most important story of the election that very few even know about. Maine might be leading a GOP comeback in the wildly liberal northeast. And LePage is doing it as a pro-life conservative. Amazing.

The only reason LePage is doing this well is because Cutler is stealing Michaud votes.

This.  And the Northeast is a diverse region.  To characterize Maine and especially New Hampshire as "wildly liberal" is epic hyperbole.

A dysfunctional Democratic Party unable to unite has the same effect as a conservative voting population.

Maine is still one of the more ideologically liberal states in the country, even if the surrounding states make it look more moderate. It is is far cry from a swing state, which might also now be true increasingly of New Hampshire

Interesting factoid: This poll has the exact same field dates as the UNH poll that showed LePage up 10.

LePage has consistently narrowed the gap. He's gone from 15 points down in a head to head to 4 points down. I think LePage could win even if it was a head to head against Michaud, since their head to head woul've gotten a lot more attention.

If this was a head to head, LePage would be in Corbett territory. Do the math. Considering Cutler is more leftist than Michaud, Michaud would likely pick up 90%+ of Cutler voters.

or...

how about reading a god damn poll. Granted, the margin was 5 points, but considering he was trailing by 15 in a head to head at the beginning of the cycle, LePage certainly wasn't going to be in Corbett territory.
