Pete Coors is a political newcomer, but he's already competitive in the race for Colorado's U.S. Senate seat. A day after announcing his entry into the race, Coors trails Attorney General Ken Salazar by just six percentage points, 47% to 41%. Salazar has a bigger lead over former Representative Bob Schaffer, 49% to 37%. The nominees for each party will not be officially determined until an August 10 primary. The candidates are campaigning for a seat currently held by popular Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell. Campbell cited health reasons for stepping down. With Campbell in the race, the seat was sure to remain in Republican hands. Once he dropped out, things started breaking for the Democrats and it looked like a seat that might switch parties this November. In the race for the White House, President Bush has a five-point edge over Senator Kerry among Colorado voters. With the entry of Coors into the race, it is impossible to tell which party will emerge victorious on Election Day in Colorado. Rasmussen Reports is an electronic publishing firm specializing in the collection, publication, and distribution of public opinion polling information. The Rasmussen Reports Election Edge™ Premium Service offers the most comprehensive public opinion coverage available anywhere. Scott Rasmussen, president of Rasmussen Reports, has been an independent pollster for more than a decade.
