The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of New Hampshire voters found no change in the race for the United States Senate over the past month. Once again, Democratic challenger Jeanne Shaheen leads Republican incumbent John Sununu 49% to 41%. In September, Shaheen led 48% to 43%. Any incumbent who is polling below 50% is considered potentially vulnerable. New Hampshire is one of several states where the Democrats may be able to expand their majority in the Senate. Other attractive take-over possibilities include Virginia, Minnesota, and Colorado. In New Hampshire, Shaheen does very well among female voters, leading Sununu 51% to 36%. Men are evenly divided between both candidates. Shaheen also leads Sununu among unaffiliated voters 49% to 36%. Sununu is viewed favorably by 48% of New Hampshire voters and unfavorably by 46%. Shaheen earns positive reviews 54% and negative feedback from 40%. When it comes to how people will vote in the upcoming presidential election, the economy is the most important issue for half (50%) of New Hampshire voters. The War in Iraq comes in a distant second with 17% of voters who think that is the top issue. In the New Hampshire presidential election, John McCain now leads both democratic candidates.
