WITH DAYS TO GO TO ELECTION, BOOKER HOLDS 10 POINT LEAD

The special U.S. Senate election will be held this Wednesday, and at the very least, Steve Lonegan has closed the gap. Newark Mayor Cory Booker holds a 10 point lead according to the final Monmouth University poll before the election. This is down from the 13 point lead he held two weeks ago and the 16 point edge he enjoyed during the summer. Independent voters are breaking more for Lonegan in this poll than Booker.
