Politics / Woods McWherter and Wamp Lead Early (Meaningless) Governor's Poll

Posted by Jeff Woods on Tue, Jul 14, 2009 at 10:53 AM

The Southern Political Report is out with a poll of the Tennessee governor's race. It raises only one question: Why'd they do it? More than a year before the election, it's meaningless except to show the name identification of the candidates at this early stage of the race. And Mike McWherter didn't even earn his name ID. That belongs to his daddy. The results:
Democrats McWherter (23%) Herron (13%) Kyle (6%) Cammack (5%) McMillan (3%) Other (16%) Undecided (34%) Republicans Wamp (22%) Haslam (15%) Ramsey (7%) Gibbons (4%)
We can say a couple of things about this: (1) If Kim McMillan can't beat Ward Cammack in any poll no matter when it's taken, she ought to quit the race. (2) Looks like Ramsey's not as well known as he likes to think.

The Cammack campaign has totally imploded and he beat McMillan. How bad is that? Herron isn't doing much better and he pulled a second. That surprises me.
IMHO, it's a McWherter v. Kyle race.
