Massachusetts Senate: Coakley Questions Accuracy of Recent Polling Data

Speaking with reporters “after rallying union members at the IBEW Local 103 here, MA AG Martha Coakley (D) questioned the accuracy of polls showing her losing to state Sen. Scott Brown (R),” Hotline On Call reports.  The “here” mentioned in the previous quote refers to Dorchester, Massachusetts.

"Every race has its own dynamic," Coakley said. "We had a tough primary. I came out of that primary ahead. I might note that many of the polls during that primary were totally inaccurate."

"We think the polls are inaccurate," she continued. "It’s just very difficult to figure out in a short race, special election, in a state race we’ve never had before. So until those votes are counted tomorrow, I don’t think anybody knows what’s going to happen."

    On what planet was the primary “tough?” Get real, Coakley.

    I’ve made many calls into MA. I’m hopeful, but realistic. We need to have the House pass the Senate’s bill.
