In the see-saw New Jersey Governor’s race, Republican challenger Christopher Christie has 42 percent to Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine’s 40 points, with 12 percent for independent candidate Christopher Daggett, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. Six percent remain undecided.
This compares with a 43 to 38 percent Corzine lead, with 13 percent for Daggett, in an Oct. 28 survey.
Among Daggett supporters, 38 percent say they might change their mind: 39 percent say Corzine is their second choice, while 29 percent say Christie is number two. Only 10 percent of Christie voters and 13 percent of Corzine backers say they might change their mind.
“Daggett is the key to an incredibly close New Jersey election,” said Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
From Oct. 27 to Nov, 1, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,533 New Jersey likely voters, with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.

I hate to say it, but Daggett should drop out to help Christie because Corzine HAS to go! I won’t expect much from Christie, but Corzine must go, for sure!
And remember the bonus… a christie win is an obama defeat!
