Blunt, Kander locked in close Senate race
WASHINGTON • Missouri’s U.S. Senate race is very close, with incumbent Republican Roy Blunt holding a 4-percentage-point lead over his likely Democratic Party opponent in November, Secretary of State Jason Kander, according to a Post-Dispatch poll conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research.
Blunt’s edge was just within the poll’s margin of error.
Both candidates have opponents in Tuesday’s primary, but each is heavily favored to win there.
In a potential general election matchup, Blunt was favored by 47 percent of poll respondents, Kander by 43 percent. The poll of 625 likely voters was taken between the two national political conventions and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
The poll shows Blunt leading among middle-age and older voters and among those living in rural areas of the state. Kander leads among those in the 18-34 age range, and he draws the most support in the St. Louis and Kansas City metropolitan areas.
