McCain Opens Big Lead On Hayworth
Sen. John McCain (R) has opened up a commanding lead over ex-Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R), according to a new poll in AZ, the latest sign that Hayworth's insurgent challenge from the right is spiraling to earth.
The Rocky Mountain Poll, conducted by the Behavior Research Center in Phoenix, shows McCain trouncing Hayworth by a 64%-19% margin. In the last such survey, conducted April 25, McCain held a 54%-28% lead.
McCain's expanding lead is an indication that Hayworth ceded further ground this past spring in a race he was already trailing.
Beleaguered by attacks stemming from the recent revelation that he pitched government grants in an '07 infomercial -- a story that broke the week before the Rocky Mountain poll was conducted -- and up against a well-funded opponent, Hayworth has not been able to generate enough enthusiasm around his bid to close the gap on the incumbent.
For his own part, McCain has been hammering Hayworth with negative TV ads the last couple of months, while Hayworth only recently took to the airwaves with a spot of his own.
McCain and Hayworth are slated to meet in debates on Friday and Saturday in what will be Hayworth's only 2 opportunities to go one-on-one with the incumbent.
The Rocky Mountain Poll was conducted from June 30-July 11 by Behavior Research Center in Phoenix; 334 GOP primary voters were surveyed. The margin of error was +/- 5.4%. The primary will take place on Aug. 24.
