Warren and Brown Virtually Tied Heading into Election Day

According to the latest poll by UMass Lowell, Brown had a one point lead heading into election day, but the lead was within the poll's margin of error.

 

Just a day before election day, a new poll released shows that Elizabeth Warren and Scott Brown are virtually tied in the US Senate race among likely voters in the state.

Brown is ahead of Warren by 1 percentage point, 49-48, the poll showed. The one-point advantage is within the poll's 4.1 margin of error. 

The latest poll was conducted by UMass Lowell's Center for Public Opinion and the Boston Herald. Nearly one thousand Massachusetts voters were surveyed between Wednesday, Oct. 31 and Saturday, Nov. 3. 

The poll found that Brown is viewed favorably by 54 percent of the 956 voters surveyed, with 39 percent holding a negative opinion of him, according to the Herald. Warren was viewed favorably by 50 percent of voters, with 42 percent viewing her unfavorably.

Virtually tied and the State still projects that 1 in 4 registered voters won't even go to the polls. Every vote really does count in this race and will make a big difference given how the senate is balanced. I hope the person I support gets the most votes but even more importantly I hope Andover residents will consider your right to vote as a duty to vote. PLEASE VOTE.
