IT'S A 60-40 COUNTRY:

Hoffman Has Big Lead Over Owens in New York House Race (Bruce Drake, 11/02/09, Politics Daily)

Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman, who was embraced by the Republican Party after state Assemblywoman Dede Scozzafava dropped out, leads Democrat Bill Owens in a two-way match-up 54 percent to 38 percent with 8 percent undecided, according to a Public Policy Polling survey conducted Oct. 31-Nov. 1.

PPP predicts Hoffman will win a "resounding victory."

Never underestimate the capacity of voters to be confused by the ballot though.
