That's a very good point. According to Rasmussen, Udall also has a 66 percent favorable rating among New Mexico voters as well, whereas Pearce's rating only comes in at 46 percent. Since April, Tom Udall has enjoyed a double-digit lead over his opponent in Rasmussen voter polls. See the article below for more.

According to a recent Rasmussen poll, Tom Udall's lead over Steve Pearce has shrunk considerably.

Udall currently leads Pearce by just 8 points after being up by more than 25 points for the past two months.

Analysts say the sudden change is due to Pearce's support for off-shore drilling and the success of the Republican candidate's attack ads.
