Hickenlooper 43, Maes 31, Tancredo 18 in Rasmussen’s First Post-Primary Colo. Governor Poll

In the first post-primary Colorado governor’s race poll, Rasmussen reports Republican nominee, Dan Maes, received a higher than expected 31 percent of the votes when pitted against Democrat Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper and former Congressman Tom Tancredo, running under the American Constitution Party banner.  Hickenlooper received 43 percent and Tancredo 18 percent. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate in the race, and only five percent (5%) are undecided.

Virtually everyone believes Hickenlooper will win the governorship if the race remains a three-way contest, and Colorado is now ranked Solid Democrat in the Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Gubernatorial Scorecard.

Rasmussen conducted its  survey of 750 Likely Voters  on August 11, 2010, the day after the Colorado primary.  The margin of sampling error is +/- 4 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.

    Since Dan Maes now significantly leads Tancredo overall, among Republicans and among unaffiliated voters, will Tancredo follow the advice of his own ultimatum and drop out of the race?

    That’s exactly what I was thinking, Ben. If you add those two numbers together, we’ve got 49 percent. That, plus Dan following Mark Hillman’s one week of intensive politics and issues training advice, and we might be able to pull this one out. Especially, if Hick is outed as an Obama libdem.

    The only way to get Dan Maes out is to pay him off. The question is – does the GOP have something that he would want? Money, job, etc…
