Kennedy -vs- Wetterling Poll

KSTP Ch 5 (the local ABC affiliate) will be releasing an exclusive poll of the contentious 6th district congressional race. This race is probably the only one in Minnesota that has a shot at being close come November 2nd.

Sunday evening on 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS at 10 p.m see the results of our exclusive poll on this race. 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS conducted the survey through Gonzalez/Boyd Political Consulting. Independent pollsters contacted 351 voters in Minnesota's 6th Congressional District who indicated they were "likely to vote" on November 2nd. A cross-section of phone interviews were conducted in each county of the district to reflect general election voting patterns. Voters were asked several questions including beliefs on specific issues, the impact of name recognition, and their overall choice for the Congressional seat. The margin for error, according to customary statistical standards, is no more than plus or minus 5 percentage points.

Watch for Kennedy and Wetterling's debate live from 6 to 7 p.m. on 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS in the metro area. 5 EYEWITNESS news will reveal it's poll results Sunday at 10 p.m.
