Poll: Who Will Win in SD-19?

•  
• by: Colorado Pols

State Senator Evie Hudak is facing a very real challenge from former CD-7 candidate Lang Sias less from Sias’ abilities as a candidate and more as a result of SD-19’s tight margins. The district is the very picture of a toss-up — Republicans maintain a slight registration advantage, but former State Treasurer Cary Kennedy narrowly won the same district in 2010.

2012 isn’t 2010 by any measure – the Presidential race will doubtlessly affect turnout and the end result precisely because the race is so competitive.

Hudak and Sias’ respective paths to the State Senate are tied to the candidates at the very top of the ballot – barring any major surprises on the campaign trail, of course. If Obama wins the district, Hudak will probably return to the Senate chambers. If the Republican nominee wins, so too can Lang Sias expect to get a title in front of his name and focus solely on retiring his congressional campaign debt.

We want to know who you think will win in SD-19. Remember, vote for the candidate your gut tells you will win, not the candidate you want to see legislating.
