A new Poll released today shows that Vitter will likely be forced into a Run Off if he is to keep his seat in the US Senate.The initial and detailed report was first reported by The Franklin Sun.
The poll was conducted on behalf of Vitter’s Republican Primary challenger, frmr Chief Justice of the Louisiana Supreme Court Chet Traylor.After delivering the information about Vitter’s “Serious Sins” as well as his continuing to employ Brent Furer after all of his “problems,” – the poll shows that Vitter has 46 % to Traylor’s 34%.
Lacking Vitter's name recognition, Traylor needs a strong protest showing to either oust Vitter or force him into a runoff. By publicizing the results of this survey, he's basically offering 527s and independent expenditure groups a blueprint for a messaging and ad campaign that will get results. Many of his supporters are wealthy, but are hamstrung by direct donation limits. They face no such limits to their donations to outside advocates, who would then carry the water for Traylor on these issues.
