The Pennsylvanian battle field, with votes over Arlen Specter and Joe Sestak, is one hell of a tight race. We have voters for both sides and the numbers are closely tied to one another — a slightest turn of events can tilt the balance to either Specter’s side or Sestak’s.
For Sestak, it all started out as being second to Specter, the 5 term Senator, who switched from a Republican to Democrat. However, the latest results are depicting that Sestak is leading by two points and that is a tough combination of luck and hard work.
Although, President Barack Obama hasn’t made any promises to Specter (other than some ad campaigns), but the Obama support for Specter, would matter a lot in this case. According to the latest poll from Quinnipiac University – Sestak was leading by 42 to 41 percent. Now that is a minor difference, that can notch itself up or down in favor of either candidates.
As far as the voters are concerned, it is really hard for anyone to predict their moves. All of them are in love with both of these Senators and they haven’t decided on going for one specific side. Some say that Sestak has a loyal band of supporters; while others who are already supporting Sestak, feel like switching to Specter’s side.
A Daily Kos Research 2000 poll conducted, from May 10 to May 12, revealed that Sestak is currently leading by 2 points, alongside 12% voters who haven’t made up their minds yet. The thing which really matters, are those “undecided” voters and they are the ones who are crucial to both sides.
