Kristi Noem Expands Lead in Rasmussen Poll
Posted: Friday, August 6th Filed in: Press Releases
SIOUX FALLS – South Dakota Republican U.S. House Candidate Kristi Noem expanded her lead over Congresswoman Stephanie Herseth Sandlin in a poll released today by Rasmussen Reports. The poll has the race at Kristi Noem 51%, Congresswoman Stephanie Herseth Sandlin 42%.
“This poll reflects what I am hearing on the campaign trail, South Dakotans are frustrated with the growth in overnment, the reckless spending and the borrowing against our children’s future. It’s irresponsible. This poll shows that a growing number of South Dakotans are ready for their only voice in the U.S. House to speak on behalf of them,” said Noem.
“Polls will go up and down, we expect this race to be very close until Election Day - which is the only poll that matters,” said Noem.
From Rasmussen Reports:
“The latest numbers mark an improvement for the Republican challenger from the 49% to 44% lead she held in July. The month before, right after her Republican Primary win, Noem, a member of the state House of Representatives, jumped out to a 53% to 41% lead over Herseth-Sandlin.
“This is the second time the challenger has crossed the critical 50% mark in matchups with the incumbent. Herseth-Sandlin in several months of surveys has come close only one time, picking up 49% support in February.”
