Democrat Chris Coons holds a double-digit lead over Republican hopeful Christine O’Donnell in the first Rasmussen Reports post-primary survey of the U.S. Senate race in Delaware.

Coons earns 53% of the vote to O’Donnell’s 42%, with leaners included. One percent (1%) prefer some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided.

The Delaware race is now viewed as Solid Democrat in the Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Senate Balance of Power rankings.

Harry Reid calling him his pet will change this race, i'm sure.

flood DE with ads, don't send Reid's pet to Washington for more job killing policies

The real problem in politics is that the leaders can't get the voters to do what is good for them.:rolleyes:

She will fire up the Dems to vote for Coons.

Rasmussen polled 9 points too far to the left in favor of Castle in the primary polling. No reason to think it'd be any different than 9 points wrong in this poll as well. (unless I understand polling incorrectly, in which case there might be reason).

Funny, they keep saying that these candidates dont have a chance and then they come back and win it.

O'Donnell has received national attention, she's raising a significant amount of money because of it and this will all play into the election. I dont know if she'll win but it'll certainly be a lot closer than what pundits are thinking it'll be.
