SAN JOSE, CA - OCTOBER 26:  U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) speaks during a town-hall-style meeting with Cisco employees at Cisco headquarters on October 26, 2010 in San Jose, California. With one week to go before election day, Sen. Boxer continues to campaign across the state in hopes of being elected to another term in the Senate by defeating her Republican challenger former HP CEO Carly Fiorina.

A new poll “shows Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer leading Republican challenger Carly Fiorina as Election Day draws near,” the AP reports.
