WA: Poll Shows Murray in Good Shape

A new Research 2000 poll shows Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) crushing two top potential Republican candidates--Rep. Dave Reichert and state Attorney Gen. Rob McKenna--in hypothetical general election match-ups. Here are the numbers:

Murray--53%
Reichert--40%

Murray--55%
McKenna--39%

The Scorecard reports: "
Neither Republican is expected to run: Reichert isn’t likely to abandon his House seat for a tough challenge against Murray, while McKenna is eying a gubernatorial race in 2012."

Murray also holds strong favorable ratings, with 55% of respondents viewing her favorable while 40% view her unfavorably.
