New Quinnipiac Poll: McConnell +5 Over McGrath, Gideon +4 Over Collins, Graham Is Tied With Harrison

Politico reports:

Sara Gideon narrowly leads Republican Sen. Susan Collins in Maine, according to a new survey from Quinnipiac University. Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell holds a narrow edge over Democrat Amy McGrath in Kentucky and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is tied with Democrat Jaime Harrison, according to the surveys.

Gideon leads Collins, 47 percent to 43 percent, with 6 percent of voters undecided, according to the survey. Both candidates have mostly consolidated support among their respective parties, while independents in the survey break narrowly for Gideon.

In Kentucky, McConnell leads McGrath, 49 percent to 44 percent, with 5 percent of voters undecided. McConnell’s favorability is slightly underwater, with 43 percent of voters viewing him favorably and 48 percent viewing him unfavorably.
