McMahon Within 5 of Blumenthal

Republican candidate Linda McMahon is now the closest in the polls she has been to beating Democrat Richard Blumenthal, who now holds only a five-point lead in Connecticut’s race for the Senate seat. The survey pegs  Blumenthal with 50% to McMahon's 45% while 4% are undecided. This is the closest the race has been since the New York Times revealed that Blumenthal lied about his service in Vietnam, which  never occurred.
