Harry Reid, (D-NV), Senator Majority Leader, is facing an increasingly difficult uphill battle to retain his senate seat. At the moment, the likelihood of Reed returning to the Senate in 2010 is zero, given the latest in a series of polls that show his approval rating in the tank and the lead widening between him and both of the Republican candidates for his seat. According to the poll, conducted by Mason-Dixon Research for the Las Vegas Review Journal, two Republican front runners, Sue Lowdown and Danny Tarkanian, are statistically tied, both beating read, by at least 10 points. Reid’s favorability is currently at 38%.
The State’s voter registration is an interesting mix with Democrats numbered at 579,950, Republicans, 468,396, non-partisan (unenrolled) 207,985 and the balance split between Green, Independent Party, Libertarian and “All Others”, (Nevada Secretary of State, these figures are current as of September 09), making those non-partisan voters key in this election. Mason-Dixon Research used a polling schematic that was concurrent with voter registration; which adds to the general conclusion that Reid is facing retirement.
