Romney looks to be heading to a significant win in Illinois, which makes me wonder why the hell Rick Santorum wasted time in Puerto Rico sunning himself. That time lounging may have been better spent campaigning in deep red sections of downstate Illinois.
REPUBLICAN PRIMARY — PRESIDENT
ILLINOIS (PPP): Romney 45, Santorum 30, Gingrich 12 and Paul 10.
ILLINOIS (American Research Group): Romney 44, Santorum 30, Gingrich 13, and Paul 8.
REPUBLICAN PRIMARY — U.S. SENATE
INDIANA (Global Strategies Group): Sen. Dick Lugar (R) d. Richard Mourdock (R), 45% to 39%. That spells danger for Lugar. If Lugar is defeated, this seat because a good pickup opportunity for the Dems in the fall.
GENERAL ELECTION — U.S. SENATE
NEW JERSEY (Farleigh Dickinson): Sen. Robert Menendez (D) d. Joe Kyrillos (R), 43% to 33%.
