Poll: Dorgan Strong Against Hoeven in North Dakota

A new Research 2000 poll finds Sen. Byron Dorgan (D-ND) holding up very well against in a hypothetical 2010 match-up against popular Republican Gov. John Hoeven.

Dorgan crushes Hoeven by 22 points, 57% to 35%, even though both men enjoy similarly strong approval ratings across nearly every demographic.

Hoeven is the only Republican who could even have a remote shot of taking down Dorgan, but he is widely thought to be very unlikely to run. Looking at numbers like these might further convince him to stay out of the race.
