A new USA Today/Suffolk University poll in Louisiana finds no candidate reaching the 50% required to avoid a runoff in the crowded November 4 election. Sen. Mary Landrieu (D) gets 36%, Bill Cassidy (R) gets 35%, Rob Maness (R) gets 11% and other candidates and undecided split 18%.
However, in a a head-to-head matchup, Cassidy has a solid 48% to 41% lead over Landrieu with 11% undecided.
Said pollster David Paleologos: “Maness supporters are basically a holding place for Cassidy … the unfavorables are 89% for Landrieu among the Maness voters.“
